If we are doing synchronous inode reclaim we block the VM from making
progress in memory reclaim. So if we encouter a flush locked inode
promote it in the delwri list and wake up xfsbufd to write it out now.
Without this we can get hangs of up to 30 seconds during workloads hitting
synchronous inode reclaim.
The scheme is copied from what we do for dquot reclaims.

Problem: Changed from wake_up_interruptible -> wake_up_process and

Fix: Instead of fixing the code which used wake_up_process and remove

The following script from Wu Fengguang shows very bad behaviour in XFS
when aggressively dirtying data during a sync on XFS, with sync times
up to almost 10 times as long as ext4.
A large part of the issue is that XFS writes data out itself two times
in the ->sync_fs method, overriding the livelock protection in the core
writeback code, and another issue is the lock-less xfs_ioend_wait call,
which doesn't prevent new ioend from being queue up while waiting for
the count to reach zero.
This patch removes the XFS-internal sync calls and relies on the VFS
to do it's work just like all other filesystems do. Note that the
i_iocount wait which is rather suboptimal is simply removed here.
We already do it in ->write_inode, which keeps the current supoptimal
behaviour. We'll eventually need to remove that as well, but that's
material for a separate commit.

- for evict_inodes we do need it, to make sure prune_icache has done it's

Currently all filesystems except XFS implement fallocate asynchronously,

I/O we really want our allocation on disk, especially for the !KEEP_SIZE

other hand always commiting the transaction is a bad idea for fast-path

that block allocation is a data plane operation anyway change it from
an inode operation to a file operation so that we have the file structure

Add a new helper to write out the inode using the writeback code,
that is including the correct dirty bit and list manipulation. A few
of filesystems already opencode this, and a lot of others should be
using it instead of using write_inode_now which also writes out the
data.

Remove the BKL usage added in "block: push down BKL into .locked_ioctl".
Virtio-blk doesn't use the BKL for anything, and doesn't implement any
ioctl command by itself, but only uses the generic scsi_cmd_ioctl
which is fine without the BKL.

These days inode64 should only control which AGs we allocate new
inodes from, while we still try to support reading all existing
inodes. To make this actually work the check ontop of xfs_iget
needs to be relaxed to allow inodes in all allocation groups instead
of just those that we allow allocating inodes from. Note that we
can't simply remove the check - it prevents us from accessing
invalid data when fed invalid inode numbers from NFS or bulkstat.

There is no need to have the users and group/project quota locked at the
same time. Get rid of xfs_qm_dqget_noattach and just do a xfs_qm_dqget
inside xfs_qm_quotacheck_dqadjust for the quota we are operating on
right now. The new version of xfs_qm_quotacheck_dqadjust holds the
inode lock over it's operations, which is not a problem as it simply
increments counters and there is no concern about log contention
during mount time.

We currently use struct backing_dev_info for various different purposes.
Originally it was introduced to describe a backing device which includes
an unplug and congestion function and various bits of readahead information
and VM-relevant flags. We're also using for tracking dirty inodes for
writeback.
To make writeback properly find all inodes we need to only access the
per-filesystem backing_device pointed to by the superblock in ->s_bdi
inside the writeback code, and not the instances pointeded to by
inode->i_mapping->backing_dev which can be overriden by special devices
or might not be set at all by some filesystems.
Long term we should split out the writeback-relevant bits of struct
backing_device_info (which includes more than the current bdi_writeback)
and only point to it from the superblock while leaving the traditional
backing device as a separate structure that can be overriden by devices.
The one exception for now is the block device filesystem which really
wants different writeback contexts for it's different (internal) inodes
to handle the writeout more efficiently. For now we do this with
a hack in fs-writeback.c because we're so late in the cycle, but in
the future I plan to replace this with a superblock method that allows
for multiple writeback contexts per filesystem.

Currenly the HFSPLUS_IOC_EXT2_GETFLAGS case never unlocks the BKL, which
can lead to easily reproduced lockups when doing multiple GETFLAGS ioctls.
Fix this by only taking the BKL for the HFSPLUS_IOC_EXT2_SETFLAGS case
as neither HFSPLUS_IOC_EXT2_GETFLAGS not the default error case needs it.

All the blkdev_issue_* helpers can only sanely be used for synchronous
caller. To issue cache flushes or barriers asynchronously the caller needs
to set up a bio by itself with a completion callback to move the asynchronous
state machine ahead. So drop the BLKDEV_IFL_WAIT flag that is always
specified when calling blkdev_issue_* and also remove the now unused flags
argument to blkdev_issue_flush and blkdev_issue_zeroout. For
blkdev_issue_discard we need to keep it for the secure discard flag, which
gains a more descriptive name and loses the bitops vs flag confusion.

These flags aren't real I/O types, but tell ll_rw_block to always
lock the buffer instead of giving up on a failed trylock.
Instead add a new write_dirty_buffer helper that implements this semantic
and use it from the existing SWRITE* callers. Note that the ll_rw_block
code had a bug where it didn't promote WRITE_SYNC_PLUG properly, which
this patch fixes.
In the ufs code clean up the helper that used to call ll_rw_block
to mirror sync_dirty_buffer, which is the function it implements for
compound buffers.

We'll need the path to implement the flags field for statvfs support.
We do have it available in all callers except:
- ecryptfs_statfs. This one doesn't actually need vfs_statfs but just
needs to do a caller to the lower filesystem statfs method.
- sys_ustat. Add a non-exported statfs_by_dentry helper for it which
doesn't won't be able to fill out the flags field later on.
In addition rename the helpers for statfs vs fstatfs to do_*statfs instead
of the misleading vfs prefix.

Make sure we check the truncate constraints early on in ->setattr by adding
those checks to inode_change_ok. Also clean up and document inode_change_ok
to make this obvious.
As a fallout we don't have to call inode_newsize_ok from simple_setsize and
simplify it down to a truncate_setsize which doesn't return an error. This
simplifies a lot of setattr implementations and means we use truncate_setsize
almost everywhere. Get rid of fat_setsize now that it's trivial and mark
ext2_setsize static to make the calling convention obvious.
Keep the inode_newsize_ok in vmtruncate for now as all callers need an
audit for its removal anyway.
Note: setattr code in ecryptfs doesn't call inode_change_ok at all and
needs a deeper audit, but that is left for later.
