Move the ext4 data structures book to Documentation/filesystems/ext4/
since the administrative information moved elsewhere.

+Blocks
+------
+
+ext4 allocates storage space in units of “blocks”. A block is a group of
+sectors between 1KiB and 64KiB, and the number of sectors must be an
+integral power of 2. Blocks are in turn grouped into larger units called
+block groups. Block size is specified at mkfs time and typically is
+4KiB. You may experience mounting problems if block size is greater than
+page size (i.e. 64KiB blocks on a i386 which only has 4KiB memory
+pages). By default a filesystem can contain 2^32 blocks; if the '64bit'
+feature is enabled, then a filesystem can have 2^64 blocks.
+
+For 32-bit filesystems, limits are as follows:
+

+Note: Files not using extents (i.e. files using block maps) must be
+placed within the first 2^32 blocks of a filesystem. Files with extents
+must be placed within the first 2^48 blocks of a filesystem. It's not
+clear what happens with larger filesystems.
