At ENOSPC, we can get a filesystem shutdown due to a cancelling a dirty
transaction in xfs_mkdir or xfs_create. This is due to the initial
allocation attempt not taking into account inode alignment and hence we
can prepare the AGF freelist for allocation when it's not actually
possible to do an allocation. This results in inode allocation returning
ENOSPC with a dirty transaction, and hence we shut down the filesystem.
Because the first allocation is an exact allocation attempt, we must tell
the allocator that the alignment does not affect the allocation attempt.
i.e. we will accept any extent alignment as long as the extent starts at
the block we want. Unfortunately, this means that if the longest free
extent is less than the length + alignment necessary for fallback
allocation attempts but is long enough to attempt a non-aligned
allocation, we will modify the free list.
If we then have the exact allocation fail, all other allocation attempts
will also fail due to the alignment constraint being taken into account.
Hence the initial attempt needs to set the "alignment slop" field so that
alignment, while not required, must be taken into account when determining
if there is enough space left in the AG to do the allocation.
That means if the exact allocation fails, we will not dirty the freelist
if there is not enough space available fo a subsequent allocation to
succeed. Hence we get an ENOSPC error back to userspace without shutting
down the filesystem.

Now that the ktrace_enter() code is using atomics, the non-power-of-2
buffer sizes - which require modulus operations to get the index - are
showing up as using substantial CPU in the profiles.
Force the buffer sizes to be rounded up to the nearest power of two and
use masking rather than modulus operations to convert the index counter to
the buffer index. This reduces ktrace_enter overhead to 8% of a CPU time,
and again almost halves the trace intensive test runtime.

XFS changes the c/mtime of an inode when truncating it to the same size.
The c/mtime is only supposed to change if the size is changed. Not to be
confused with ftruncate, where the c/mtime is supposed to be changed even
if the size is not changed.
The Linux VFS encodes this semantic difference in the flags it sends down
to ->setattr, which XFS currently ignores. We need to make XFS pay
attention to the VFS flags and hence Do The Right Thing.

Now that we update the log tail LSN less frequently on transaction
completion, we pass the contention straight to the global log state lock
(l_iclog_lock) during transaction completion.
We currently have to take this lock to decrement the iclog reference
count. there is a reference count on each iclog, so we need to take he
global lock for all refcount changes.
When large numbers of processes are all doing small trnasctions, the iclog
reference counts will be quite high, and the state change that absolutely
requires the l_iclog_lock is the except rather than the norm.
Change the reference counting on the iclogs to use atomic_inc/dec so that
we can use atomic_dec_and_lock during transaction completion and avoid the
need for grabbing the l_iclog_lock for every reference count decrement
except the one that matters - the last.

When hundreds of processors attempt to commit transactions at the same
time, they can contend on the AIL lock when updating the tail LSN held in
the in-core log structure.
At the moment, the tail LSN is only needed when actually writing out an
iclog, so it really does not need to be updated on every single
transaction completion - only those that result in switching iclogs and
flushing them to disk.
The result is that we reduce the number of times we need to grab the AIL
lock and the log grant lock by up to two orders of magnitude on large
processor count machines. The problem has previously been hidden by AIL
lock contention walking the AIL list which was recently solved and
uncovered this issue.

Remove the xfs_icluster structure and replace with a radix tree lookup.
We don't need to keep a list of inodes in each cluster around anymore as
we can look them up quickly when we need to. The only time we need to do
this now is during inode writeback.
Factor the inode cluster writeback code out of xfs_iflush and convert it
to use radix_tree_gang_lookup() instead of walking a list of inodes built
when we first read in the inodes.
This remove 3 pointers from each xfs_inode structure and the xfs_icluster
structure per inode cluster. Hence we reduce the cache footprint of the
xfs_inodes by between 5-10% depending on cluster sparseness.
To be truly efficient we need a radix_tree_gang_lookup_range() call to
stop searching once we are past the end of the cluster instead of trying
to find a full cluster's worth of inodes.

When pdflush is writing back inodes, it can get stuck on inode cluster
buffers that are currently under I/O. This occurs when we write data to
multiple inodes in the same inode cluster at the same time.
Effectively, delayed allocation marks the inode dirty during the data
writeback. Hence if the inode cluster was flushed during the writeback of
the first inode, the writeback of the second inode will block waiting for
the inode cluster write to complete before writing it again for the newly
dirtied inode.
Basically, we want to avoid this from happening so we don't block pdflush
and slow down all of writeback. Hence we introduce a non-blocking async
inode flush flag that pdflush uses. If this flag is set, we use
non-blocking operations (e.g. try locks) whereever we can to avoid
blocking or extra I/O being issued.
