The block allocation process and error handling in ext4_page_mkwrite() is complex now. Refactor it by introducing a new helper function, ext4_block_page_mkwrite(). It will call ext4_block_write_begin() to allocate blocks instead of directly calling block_page_mkwrite(). Preparing to implement retry logic in a subsequent patch to address situations where the reserved journal credits are insufficient. Additionally, this modification will help prevent potential deadlocks that may occur when waiting for folio writeback while holding the transaction handle.

README
Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
