With the reclaim code separated from the generic walking code, it is
simple to implement batched lookups for the generic walk code.
Separate out the inode validation from the execute operations and
modify the tree lookups to get a batch of inodes at a time.
Reclaim operations will be optimised separately.

Now the shrinker passes us a context, wire up a shrinker context per
filesystem. This allows us to remove the global mount list and the
locking problems that introduced. It also means that a shrinker call
does not need to traverse clean filesystems before finding a
filesystem with reclaimable inodes. This significantly reduces
scanning overhead when lots of filesystems are present.

On low memory boxes or those with highmem, kernel can OOM before the
background reclaims inodes via xfssyncd. Add a shrinker to run inode
reclaim so that it inode reclaim is expedited when memory is low.
This is more complex than it needs to be because the VM folk don't
want a context added to the shrinker infrastructure. Hence we need
to add a global list of XFS mount structures so the shrinker can
traverse them.

Currently the reclaim code for the case where we don't reclaim the
final reclaim is overly complicated. We know that the inode is clean
but instead of just directly reclaiming the clean inode we go through
the whole process of marking the inode reclaimable just to directly
reclaim it from the calling context. Besides being overly complicated
this introduces a race where iget could recycle an inode between
marked reclaimable and actually being reclaimed leading to panics.
This patch gets rid of the existing reclaim path, and replaces it with
a simple call to xfs_ireclaim if the inode was clean. While we're at
it we also use the slightly more lax xfs_inode_clean check we'd use
later to determine if we need to flush the inode here.
Finally get rid of xfs_reclaim function and place the remaining small
bits of reclaim code directly into xfs_fs_destroy_inode.

The locking in xfs_iget_cache_hit currently has numerous problems:
- we clear the reclaim tag without i_flags_lock which protects
modifications to it
- we call inode_init_always which can sleep with pag_ici_lock
held (this is oss.sgi.com BZ #819)
- we acquire and drop i_flags_lock a lot and thus provide no
consistency between the various flags we set/clear under it
This patch fixes all that with a major revamp of the locking in
the function. The new version acquires i_flags_lock early and
only drops it once we need to call into inode_init_always or before
calling xfs_ilock.
This patch fixes a bug seen in the wild where we race modifying the
reclaim tag.

SYNC_BDFLUSH is a leftover from IRIX and rather misnamed for todays

for not blocking on logs just as the inode sync code already does.
For xfs_sync_fsdata it's a trivial 1:1 replacement, but for xfs_qm_sync
I use the opportunity to decouple the non-blocking lock case from the

We want to wait for all I/O to finish when we do data integrity syncs. So
there is no reason to keep SYNC_WAIT separate from SYNC_IOWAIT. This

does a second submission and wait of buffered I/O, but that should finish
ASAP as we already did an asynchronous writeout earlier.

xfs_sync_inodes is used to write back either file data or inode metadata.
In general we always do these separately, except for one fishy case in
xfs_fs_put_super that does both. So separate xfs_sync_inodes into
separate xfs_sync_data and xfs_sync_attr functions. In xfs_fs_put_super
we first call the data sync and then the attr sync as that was the previous
order. The moved log force in that path doesn't make a difference because
we will force the log again as part of the real unmount process.
The filesystem readonly checks are not performed by the new function but
instead moved into the callers, given that most callers alredy have it
further up in the stack. Also add debug checks that we do not pass in
incorrect flags in the new xfs_sync_data and xfs_sync_attr function and
fix the one place that did pass in a wrong flag.
Also remove a comment mentioning xfs_sync_inodes that has been incorrect
for a while because we always take either the iolock or ilock in the
sync path these days.

xfs_flush_inodes() currently uses a magic timeout to wait for
some inodes to be flushed before returning. This isn't
really reliable but used to be the best that could be done
due to deadlock potential of waiting for the entire flush.
Now the inode flush is safe to execute while we hold page
and inode locks, we can wait for all the inodes to flush
synchronously. Convert the wait mechanism to a completion
to do this efficiently. This should remove all remaining
spurious ENOSPC errors from the delayed allocation reservation
path.
This is extracted almost line for line from a larger patch
from Mikulas Patocka.

When we are writing to a single file and hit ENOSPC, we trigger a background
flush of the inode and try again. Because we hold page locks and the iolock,
the flush won't proceed until after we release these locks. This occurs once
we've given up and ENOSPC has been reported. Hence if this one is the only
dirty inode in the system, we'll get an ENOSPC prematurely.
To fix this, remove the async flush from the allocation routines and move
it to the top of the write path where we can do a synchronous flush
and retry the write again. Only retry once as a second ENOSPC indicates
that we really are ENOSPC.
This avoids a page cache deadlock when trying to do this flush synchronously
in the allocation layer that was identified by Mikulas Patocka.

Currently xfs_device_flush calls sync_blockdev() which is
a no-op for XFS as all it's metadata is held in a different
address to the one sync_blockdev() works on.
Call xfs_sync_inodes() instead to flush all the delayed
allocation blocks out. To do this as efficiently as possible,
do it via two passes - one to do an async flush of all the
dirty blocks and a second to wait for all the IO to complete.
This requires some modification to the xfs-sync_inodes_ag()
flush code to do efficiently.
