I found that the latest e4defrag was released and had been merged into the 
latest
version(1.4.11) of e2fsprogs. So I think we should update e4defrag.c in LTP to 
the
latest version. I think if e4defrag is installed into the system, we needn't use
e4defrag in the LTP. If not, we use e4defrag in the LTP.

And before compiling ext4-new-features testcases, we do an autoconf test and 
check
whether fallocate() has been defined or not, just like header files check.
