xfs_bmapi() currently handles both extent map reading and
allocation. As a result, the code is littered with "if (wr)"
branches to conditionally do allocation operations if required.
This makes the code much harder to follow and causes significant
indent issues with the code.
Given that read mapping is much simpler than allocation, we can
split out read mapping from xfs_bmapi() and reuse the logic that
we have already factored out do do all the hard work of handling the
extent map manipulations. The results in a much simpler function for
the common extent read operations, and will allow the allocation
code to be simplified in another commit.
Once xfs_bmapi_read() is implemented, convert all the callers of
xfs_bmapi() that are only reading extents to use the new function.

For append write workloads, extending the file requires a certain
amount of exclusive locking to be done up front to ensure sanity in
things like ensuring that we've zeroed any allocated regions
between the old EOF and the start of the new IO.
For single threads, this typically isn't a problem, and for large
IOs we don't serialise enough for it to be a problem for two
threads on really fast block devices. However for smaller IO and
larger thread counts we have a problem.
Take 4 concurrent sequential, single block sized and aligned IOs.
After the first IO is submitted but before it completes, we end up
with this state:
IO 1 IO 2 IO 3 IO 4
+-------+-------+-------+-------+
^ ^
| |
| |
| |
| \- ip->i_new_size
\- ip->i_size
And the IO is done without exclusive locking because offset <=
ip->i_size. When we submit IO 2, we see offset > ip->i_size, and
grab the IO lock exclusive, because there is a chance we need to do
EOF zeroing. However, there is already an IO in progress that avoids
the need for IO zeroing because offset <= ip->i_new_size. hence we
could avoid holding the IO lock exlcusive for this. Hence after
submission of the second IO, we'd end up this state:
IO 1 IO 2 IO 3 IO 4
+-------+-------+-------+-------+
^ ^
| |
| |
| |
| \- ip->i_new_size
\- ip->i_size
There is no need to grab the i_mutex of the IO lock in exclusive
mode if we don't need to invalidate the page cache. Taking these
locks on every direct IO effective serialises them as taking the IO
lock in exclusive mode has to wait for all shared holders to drop
the lock. That only happens when IO is complete, so effective it
prevents dispatch of concurrent direct IO writes to the same inode.
And so you can see that for the third concurrent IO, we'd avoid
exclusive locking for the same reason we avoided the exclusive lock
for the second IO.
Fixing this is a bit more complex than that, because we need to hold
a write-submission local value of ip->i_new_size to that clearing
the value is only done if no other thread has updated it before our
IO completes.....

Currently we have a few issues with the way the workqueue code is used to
implement AIL pushing:
- it accidentally uses the same workqueue as the syncer action, and thus
can be prevented from running if there are enough sync actions active
in the system.
- it doesn't use the HIGHPRI flag to queue at the head of the queue of
work items
At this point I'm not confident enough in getting all the workqueue flags and
tweaks right to provide a perfectly reliable execution context for AIL
pushing, which is the most important piece in XFS to make forward progress
when the log fills.
Revert back to use a kthread per filesystem which fixes all the above issues
at the cost of having a task struct and stack around for each mounted
filesystem. In addition this also gives us much better ways to diagnose

During umount we do not add a dirty inode to the lru and wait for it to

inode has been redirtied for metadata operations, as we skip the
mark_inode_dirty call during teardown. Fix this by setting i_update_core
nanually in that case, so that the inode gets flushed during inode reclaim.
Alternatively we could enable calling mark_inode_dirty for inodes in
I_WILL_FREE state, and let the VFS dirty tracking handle this. I decided
against this as we will get better I/O patterns from reclaim compared to
the synchronous writeout in write_inode_now, and always marking the inode
