[XFS] Fix inode allocation latency
The log force added in xfs_iget_core() has been a performance issue since
it was introduced for tight loops that allocate then unlink a single file.
under heavy writeback, this can introduce unnecessary latency due tothe
log I/o getting stuck behind bulk data writes.
Fix this latency problem by avoinding the need for the log force by moving
the place we mark linux inode dirty to the transaction commit rather than
on transaction completion.
This also closes a potential hole in the sync code where a linux inode is
not dirty between the time it is modified and the time the log buffer has
been written to disk.

[XFS] Fix transaction overrun during writeback.
Prevent transaction overrun in xfs_iomap_write_allocate() if we race with
a truncate that overlaps the delalloc range we were planning to allocate.
If we race, we may allocate into a hole and that requires block
allocation. At this point in time we don't have a reservation for block
allocation (apart from metadata blocks) and so allocating into a hole
rather than a delalloc region results in overflowing the transaction block
reservation.
Fix it by only allowing a single extent to be allocated at a time.

[XFS] Fix sparse warning in xlog_recover_do_efd_trans.
Sparse trips over the locking order in xlog_recover_do_efd_trans() when
xfs_trans_delete_ail() drops the ail lock. Because the unlock is
conditional, we need to either annotate with a "fake unlock" or change the
structure of the code so sparse thinks the function always unlocks.
changed this behavior and made xfs_bulkstat() to filter all unlinked
inodes including those that are not destroyed yet but held by reference.
The attached patch returns back to the original behavior by marking the
on-disk inode buffer "dirty" when di_mode is cleared (at that time both
inode link and reference counter are zero).
There is no need to lock any page in xfs_buf.c because we operate on our
own address_space and all locking is covered by the buffer semaphore. If
we ever switch back to main blockdeive address_space as suggested e.g. for
fsblock with a similar scheme the locking will have to be totally revised
anyway because the current scheme is neither correct nor coherent with
itself.

[XFS] Refactor xfs_mountfs
Refactoring xfs_mountfs() to call sub-functions for logical chunks can
help save a bit of stack, and can make it easier to read this long
function.
The mount path is one of the longest common callchains, easily getting to
within a few bytes of the end of a 4k stack when over lvm, quotas are
enabled, and quotacheck must be done.
With this change on top of the other stack-related changes I've sent, I
can get xfs to survive a normal xfsqa run on 4k stacks over lvm.
Mostly trivial conversion with one exceptions: h_num_logops was kept in
native endian previously and only converted to big endian in xlog_sync,
but we always keep it big endian now. With todays cpus fast byteswap
instructions that's not an issue but the new variant keeps the code clean
and maintainable.
- the various assign lsn macros are replaced by a single inline,
xlog_assign_lsn, which is equivalent to ASSIGN_ANY_LSN_HOST except
for a more sane calling convention. ASSIGN_LSN_DISK is replaced
by xlog_assign_lsn and a manual bytespap, and ASSIGN_LSN by the same,
except we pass the cycle and block arguments explicitly instead of a
log paramter. The latter two variants only had 2, respectively one
user anyway.
- the GET_CYCLE is replaced by a xlog_get_cycle inline with exactly the
same calling conventions.
- GET_CLIENT_ID is replaced by xlog_get_client_id which leaves away
the unused arch argument. Instead of conditional defintions
depending on host endianess we now do an unconditional swap and shift
then, which generates equal code.
- the unused XLOG_SET macro is removed.

xfs_ioctl.c passes around vnode pointers quite a lot, but all places
already have the Linux inode which is identical to the vnode these days.
Clean the code up to always use the Linux inode.
We were already filling the Linux struct statfs anyway, and doing this
trivial task directly in xfs_fs_statfs makes the code quite a bit cleaner.
While I was at it I also moved copying attributes that don't change over
the lifetime of the filesystem outside the superblock lock.
xfs_fs_fill_super used to get the magic number and blocksize through
xfs_statvfs, but assigning them directly is a lot cleaner and will save
some stack space during mount.
xfs_iocore_t is a structure embedded in xfs_inode. Except for one field it
just duplicates fields already in xfs_inode, and there is nothing this
abstraction buys us on XFS/Linux. This patch removes it and shrinks source
and binary size of xfs aswell as shrinking the size of xfs_inode by 60/44
bytes in debug/non-debug builds.

it has nothing in common with the other cases. Instead check for the
shutdown filesystem in xfs_end_bio_unwritten and perform a direct call to
xfs_iomap_write_unwritten (which should be renamed to something more
sensible one day)

Add parameter to add_partial to avoid having two functions
Add a parameter to add_partial instead of having separate functions. The
parameter allows a more detailed control of where the slab pages is placed in
the partial queues.
If we put slabs back to the front then they are likely immediately used for
allocations. If they are put at the end then we can maximize the time that
the partial slabs spent without being subject to allocations.
When deactivating slab we can put the slabs that had remote objects freed (we
can see that because objects were put on the freelist that requires locks) to
them at the end of the list so that the cachelines of remote processors can
cool down. Slabs that had objects from the local cpu freed to them (objects
exist in the lockless freelist) are put in the front of the list to be reused
ASAP in order to exploit the cache hot state of the local cpu.
Patch seems to slightly improve tbench speed (1-2%).

x86: cpa, fix lookup_address
lookup_address() returns a wrong level and a wrong pointer to a non
existing pte, when pmd or pud entries are marked !present. This
happens for example due to boot time mapping of GART into the low
memory space.

x86: AMD Athlon X2 hard hang fix
An Athlon 64 X2 test system showed hard hangs shortly after marking
the kernel text read-only, if we tried to preserve largepages and
changed the PSE entry from RW to RO. The pagetable code itself is
correct, it's the CPU that locked up hard (and not even the NMI
watchdog could punch through that hard hang).
So be conservative and always do splitups - like we did in the past.

x86: no CPA on iounmap
When an ioremap is unmapped, do not change the page attributes. There might
be another mapping of the same physical address. PAT might detect a conflicting
mapping attribute for no good reason. The mapping is removed anyway.
