This adds a new ioctl command which limits range of segment to be allocated. This is intended to gather data whithin a range of the partition before shrinking the filesystem, or to control new log location for some purpose. If a range is specified by the ioctl, segment allocator of nilfs tries to allocate new segments from the range unless no free segments are available there.
