One unfortunate quirk of the reference count and reverse mapping
btrees -- they can expand in size when blocks are written to *other*
allocation groups if, say, one large extent becomes a lot of tiny
extents. Since we don't want to start throwing errors in the middle
of CoWing, we need to reserve some blocks to handle future expansion.
The transaction block reservation counters aren't sufficient here
because we have to have a reserve of blocks in every AG, not just
somewhere in the filesystem.
Therefore, create two per-AG block reservation pools. One feeds the
AGFL so that rmapbt expansion always succeeds, and the other feeds all
other metadata so that refcountbt expansion never fails.
Use the count of how many reserved blocks we need to have on hand to
create a virtual reservation in the AG. Through selective clamping of
the maximum length of allocation requests and of the length of the
longest free extent, we can make it look like there's less free space
in the AG unless the reservation owner is asking for blocks.
In other words, play some accounting tricks in-core to make sure that
we always have blocks available. On the plus side, there's nothing to
clean up if we crash, which is contrast to the strategy that the rough
draft used (actually removing extents from the freespace btrees).

For the rmap btree to work, we have to feed the extent owner
information to the the allocation and freeing functions. This
information is what will end up in the rmap btree that tracks
allocated extents. While we technically don't need the owner
information when freeing extents, passing it allows us to validate
that the extent we are removing from the rmap btree actually
belonged to the owner we expected it to belong to.
We also define a special set of owner values for internal metadata
that would otherwise have no owner. This allows us to tell the
difference between metadata owned by different per-ag btrees, as
well as static fs metadata (e.g. AG headers) and internal journal
blocks.
There are also a couple of special cases we need to take care of -
during EFI recovery, we don't actually know who the original owner
was, so we need to pass a wildcard to indicate that we aren't
checking the owner for validity. We also need special handling in
growfs, as we "free" the space in the last AG when extending it, but
because it's new space it has no actual owner...
While touching the xfs_bmap_add_free() function, re-order the
parameters to put the struct xfs_mount first.
Extend the owner field to include both the owner type and some sort
of index within the owner. The index field will be used to support
reverse mappings when reflink is enabled.
When we're freeing extents from an EFI, we don't have the owner
information available (rmap updates have their own redo items).
xfs_free_extent therefore doesn't need to do an rmap update. Make
sure that the log replay code signals this correctly.
This is based upon a patch originally from Dave Chinner. It has been
extended to add more owner information with the intent of helping
recovery operations when things go wrong (e.g. offset of user data
block in a file).

Log recovery attempts to free extents with leftover EFIs in the AIL
after initial processing. If the extent free fails (e.g., due to
unrelated fs corruption), the transaction is cancelled, though it
might not be dirtied at the time. If this is the case, the EFD does
not abort and thus does not release the EFI. This can lead to hangs
as the EFI pins the AIL.
Update xlog_recover_process_efi() to log the EFD in the transaction
before xfs_free_extent() errors are handled to ensure the
transaction is dirty, aborts the EFD and releases the EFI on error.
Since this is a requirement for EFD processing (and consistent with
xfs_bmap_finish()), update the EFD logging helper to do the extent
free and unconditionally log the EFD. This encodes the required EFD
logging behavior into the helper and reduces the likelihood of
errors down the road.

xfs_trans.h has a dependency on xfs_log.h for a couple of
structures. Most code that does transactions doesn't need to know
anything about the log, but this dependency means that they have to
include xfs_log.h. Decouple the xfs_trans.h and xfs_log.h header
files and clean up the includes to be in dependency order.
In doing this, remove the direct include of xfs_trans_reserve.h from
xfs_trans.h so that we remove the dependency between xfs_trans.h and
xfs_mount.h. Hence the xfs_trans.h include can be moved to the
indicate the actual dependencies other header files have on it.
Note that these are kernel only header files, so this does not
translate to any userspace changes at all.

All of the buffer operations structures are needed to be exported
for xfs_db, so move them all to a common location rather than
spreading them all over the place. They are verifying the on-disk
format, so while xfs_format.h might be a good place, it is not part
of the on disk format.
Hence we need to create a new header file that we centralise these
related definitions. Start by moving the bffer operations
structures, and then also move all the other definitions that have
crept into xfs_log_format.h and xfs_format.h as there was no other
shared header file to put them in.

EFI/EFD interactions are protected from races by the AIL lock. They
are the only type of log items that require the the AIL lock to
serialise internal state, so they need to be separated from the AIL
lock before we can do bulk insert operations on the AIL.
To acheive this, convert the counter of the number of extents in the
EFI to an atomic so it can be safely manipulated by EFD processing
without locks. Also, convert the EFI state flag manipulations to use
atomic bit operations so no locks are needed to record state
changes. Finally, use the state bits to determine when it is safe to
free the EFI and clean up the code to do this neatly.

Currently we track log item descriptor belonging to a transaction using a
complex opencoded chunk allocator. This code has been there since day one
and seems to work around the lack of an efficient slab allocator.
This patch replaces it with dynamically allocated log item descriptors
from a dedicated slab pool, linked to the transaction by a linked list.
This allows to greatly simplify the log item descriptor tracking to the
point where it's just a couple hundred lines in xfs_trans.c instead of
a separate file. The external API has also been simplified while we're
at it - the xfs_trans_add_item and xfs_trans_del_item functions to add/
delete items from a transaction have been simplified to the bare minium,
and the xfs_trans_find_item function is replaced with a direct dereference
of the li_desc field. All debug code walking the list of log items in
a transaction is down to a simple list_for_each_entry.
Note that we could easily use a singly linked list here instead of the
double linked list from list.h as the fastpath only does deletion from
sequential traversal. But given that we don't have one available as
a library function yet I use the list.h functions for simplicity.

This patch drops over 700 lines of dmapi overhead. If we'll ever get HSM

One of the perpetual scaling problems XFS has is indexing it's incore
inodes. We currently uses hashes and the default hash sizes chosen can
only ever be a tradeoff between memory consumption and the maximum
realistic size of the cache.
As a result, anyone who has millions of inodes cached on a filesystem
needs to tunes the size of the cache via the ihashsize mount option to
allow decent scalability with inode cache operations.
A further problem is the separate inode cluster hash, whose size is based
on the ihashsize but is smaller, and so under certain conditions (sparse
cluster cache population) this can become a limitation long before the
inode hash is causing issues.
The following patchset removes the inode hash and cluster hash and
replaces them with radix trees to avoid the scalability limitations of the
hashes. It also reduces the size of the inodes by 3 pointers....
