This does not look right. The second argument in round_down() must be a
power of two, but there is no such restriction on blocks per group.

Also I am not quite sure why do we adjust the start in this way at all?
If we found what seems to be a preallocated extent which we can use and
we're actually going to use 0 lenght extent it seems like the problem is
somewhere else? Can you desribe the problem a bit more in detail?

Maybe I need to look at the ext4_mb_normalize_request() some more.
