flush[_delayed]_work_sync() are now spurious. Mark them deprecated
and convert all users to flush[_delayed]_work().
If you're cc'd and wondering what's going on: Now all workqueues are
non-reentrant and the regular flushes guarantee that the work item is
not pending or running on any CPU on return, so there's no reason to
use the sync flushes at all and they're going away.
This patch doesn't make any functional difference.

v2: Add the xfs_buf_lock to xfs_quiesce_attr().
Add explaination why xfs_buf_lock() is used to wait for write.
xfs_wait_buftarg() does not wait for the completion of the write of the
uncached superblock. This write can race with the shutdown of the log
and causes a panic if the write does not win the race.
During the log write, xfsaild_push() will lock the buffer and set the
XBF_ASYNC flag. Because the XBF_FLAG is set, complete() is not performed
on the buffer's iowait entry, we cannot call xfs_buf_iowait() to wait
for the write to complete. The buffer's lock is held until the write is
complete, so we can block on a xfs_buf_lock() request to be notified
that the write is complete.

Queue delwri buffers on a local on-stack list instead of a per-buftarg one,
and write back the buffers per-process instead of by waking up xfsbufd.
This is now easily doable given that we have very few places left that write
delwri buffers:
- log recovery:
Only done at mount time, and already forcing out the buffers
synchronously using xfs_flush_buftarg
- quotacheck:
Same story.
- dquot reclaim:
Writes out dirty dquots on the LRU under memory pressure. We might
want to look into doing more of this via xfsaild, but it's already
more optimal than the synchronous inode reclaim that writes each
buffer synchronously.
- xfsaild:
This is the main beneficiary of the change. By keeping a local list
of buffers to write we reduce latency of writing out buffers, and
more importably we can remove all the delwri list promotions which
were hitting the buffer cache hard under sustained metadata loads.
The implementation is very straight forward - xfs_buf_delwri_queue now gets
a new list_head pointer that it adds the delwri buffers to, and all callers
need to eventually submit the list using xfs_buf_delwi_submit or
xfs_buf_delwi_submit_nowait. Buffers that already are on a delwri list are
skipped in xfs_buf_delwri_queue, assuming they already are on another delwri
list. The biggest change to pass down the buffer list was done to the AIL
pushing. Now that we operate on buffers the trylock, push and pushbuf log
item methods are merged into a single push routine, which tries to lock the
item, and if possible add the buffer that needs writeback to the buffer list.
This leads to much simpler code than the previous split but requires the
individual IOP_PUSH instances to unlock and reacquire the AIL around calls
to blocking routines.
Given that xfsailds now also handle writing out buffers, the conditions for
log forcing and the sleep times needed some small changes. The most
important one is that we consider an AIL busy as long we still have buffers
to push, and the other one is that we do increment the pushed LSN for
buffers that are under flushing at this moment, but still count them towards
the stuck items for restart purposes. Without this we could hammer on stuck
items without ever forcing the log and not make progress under heavy random
delete workloads on fast flash storage devices.
[ Dave Chinner:
- rebase on previous patches.
- improved comments for XBF_DELWRI_Q handling
- fix XBF_ASYNC handling in queue submission (test 106 failure)
- rename delwri submit function buffer list parameters for clarity
- xfs_efd_item_push() should return XFS_ITEM_PINNED ]

Now that we write back all metadata either synchronously or through
the AIL we can simply implement metadata freezing in terms of
emptying the AIL.
The implementation for this is fairly simply and straight-forward:
A new routine is added that asks the xfsaild to push the AIL to the
end and waits for it to complete and send a wakeup. The routine will
then loop if the AIL is not actually empty, and continue to do so
until the AIL is compeltely empty.
We keep an inode reclaim pass in the freeze process to avoid having
memory pressure have to reclaim inodes that require dirtying the
filesystem to be reclaimed after the freeze has completed. This
means we can also treat unmount in the exact same way as freeze.
As an upside we can now remove the radix tree based inode writeback
and xfs_unmountfs_writesb.

- Added inode reclaim passes back into freeze.

If a filesystem has been forced shutdown we are never going to write inodes
to disk, which means the inode items will stay in the AIL until we free
the inode. Currently that is not a problem, but a pending change requires us
to empty the AIL before shutting down the filesystem. In that case leaving
the inode in the AIL is lethal. Make sure to remove the log item from the AIL
to allow emptying the AIL on shutdown filesystems.

Because the mount process can run a quotacheck and consume lots of
inodes, we need to be able to run periodic inode reclaim during the
mount process. This will prevent running the system out of memory
during quota checks.
This essentially reverts 2bcf6e97, but that is safe to do now that
the quota sync code that was causing problems during long quotacheck
executions is now gone.
The reclaim work is currently protected from running during the
unmount process by a check against MS_ACTIVE. Unfortunately, this
also means that the reclaim work cannot run during mount. The
unmount process should stop the reclaim cleanly before freeing
anything that the reclaim work depends on, so there is no need to
have this guard in place.
Also, the inode reclaim work is demand driven, so there is no need
to start it immediately during mount. It will be started the moment
an inode is queued for reclaim, so qutoacheck will trigger it just
fine.

At the end of xfs_reclaim_inode(), the inode is locked in order to
we wait for a possible concurrent lookup to complete before the
inode is freed. This synchronization step was taking both the ILOCK
and the IOLOCK, but the latter was causing lockdep to produce
reports of the possibility of deadlock.
It turns out that there's no need to acquire the IOLOCK at this
point anyway. It may have been required in some earlier version of
the code, but there should be no need to take the IOLOCK in
xfs_iget(), so there's no (longer) any need to get it here for
synchronization. Add an assertion in xfs_iget() as a reminder
of this assumption.
Dave Chinner diagnosed this on IRC, and Christoph Hellwig suggested
no longer including the IOLOCK. I just put together the patch.

We almost never block on i_flock, the exception is synchronous inode
flushing. Instead of bloating the inode with a 16/24-byte completion
that we abuse as a semaphore just implement it as a bitlock that uses
a bit waitqueue for the rare sleeping path. This primarily is a
tradeoff between a much smaller inode and a faster non-blocking
path vs faster wakeups, and we are much better off with the former.
A small downside is that we will lose lockdep checking for i_flock, but
given that it's always taken inside the ilock that should be acceptable.
Note that for example the inode writeback locking is implemented in a
very similar way.

Fix up trivial conflict in fs/xfs/xfs_sync.c
Since Linux 2.6.36 the writeback code has introduces various measures for
live lock prevention during sync(). Unfortunately some of these are
actively harmful for the XFS model, where the inode gets marked dirty for
metadata from the data I/O handler.
The older_than_this checks that are now more strictly enforced since
writeback: avoid livelocking WB_SYNC_ALL writeback
by only calling into __writeback_inodes_sb and thus only sampling the
current cut off time once. But on a slow enough devices the previous
asynchronous sync pass might not have fully completed yet, and thus XFS
might mark metadata dirty only after that sampling of the cut off time for
the blocking pass already happened. I have not myself reproduced this
myself on a real system, but by introducing artificial delay into the
XFS I/O completion workqueues it can be reproduced easily.
Fix this by iterating over all XFS inodes in ->sync_fs and log all that
are dirty. This might log inode that only got redirtied after the
previous pass, but given how cheap delayed logging of inodes is it
isn't a major concern for performance.
