Patch looks mostly good, some comments and cleanups below.

This comment is probably still valid?

Moving this here is a bit confusing, since it has no context of what it is
used for. This only makes sense together with ext4_resize_{begin,end}(),
so it should be declared below, inside CONFIG_EXT4_RESIZE.

It also wouldn't hurt to rename this something like EXT4_RESIZE_ACTIVE,
and add to the comment at s_resize_flags indicating it is using
EXT4_RESIZE_* bits.

IS_ENABLED() seems unnecessary, as most CONFIG_* symbols are checked via

#ifdef CONFIG_EXT4_RESIZE

Is there some reason to use IS_ENABLED() for this? My quick reading of
the ugly macro series this uses is for CONFIG_ values that may be 0 or 1,
and #ifdef CONFIG_* is fine for values that may be "y" or "m".
