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.

Hit this assert because an inode was tagged with XFS_ICI_RECLAIM_TAG but
not XFS_IRECLAIMABLE|XFS_IRECLAIM. This is because xfs_iget_cache_hit()
first clears XFS_IRECLAIMABLE and then calls __xfs_inode_clear_reclaim_tag()
while only holding the pag_ici_lock in read mode so we can race with
xfs_reclaim_inodes_ag(). Looks like xfs_reclaim_inodes_ag() will do the
right thing anyway so just remove the assert.
Thanks to Christoph for pointing out where the problem was.

The radix tree walks in xfs_sync_inodes_ag and xfs_qm_dqrele_all_inodes()
can find inodes that are still undergoing initialisation. Avoid
them by checking for the the XFS_INEW() flag once we have a reference
on the inode. This flag is cleared once the inode is properly initialised.

If we are syncing data in xfs_sync_inodes_ag(), the VFS inode must still
be referencable as the dirty data state is carried on the VFS inode. hence
if we can't get a reference via igrab(), the inode must be in reclaim
which implies that it has no dirty data attached.
Leave such inodes to the reclaim code to flush the dirty inode state to
disk and so avoid attempting to access the VFS inode when it may not exist
in xfs_sync_inodes_ag().
Version 4:
o don't reference linux inode until after igrab() succeeds
Version 3:
o converted unlock/rele to an xfs_iput() call.
Version 2:
o change igrab logic to be more linear
o remove initial reclaimable inode check now that we are using
igrab() failure to find reclaimable inodes
o assert that igrab failure occurs only on reclaimable inodes
o clean up inode locking - only grab the iolock if we are doing
a SYNC_DELWRI call and we have a dirty inode.

If the last block of the AG has inodes in it and the AG is an exactly
power-of-2 size then the last inode in the AG points to the last block in
the AG. If we try to find the next inode in the AG by adding one to the
inode number, we increment the inode number past the size of the AG. The
result is that the macro XFS_INO_TO_AGINO() will strip the AG portion of
the inode number and return an inode number of zero.
That is, instead of terminating the lookup loop because we hit the inode
number went outside the valid range for the AG, the search index returns
to zero and we start traversing the radix tree from the start again. This
results in an endless loop in xfs_sync_inodes_ag().
Fix it be detecting if the new search index decreases as a result of
incrementing the current inode number. That indicate an overflow and hence
that we have finished processing the AG so we can terminate the loop.

SYNC_CLOSE is only ever used and checked in conjunction with SYNC_WAIT,
and this only done in one spot. The only thing this does is make
XFS_bflush() calls to the data buftargs.
This will happen very shortly afterwards the xfs_sync() call anyway in the
unmount path via the xfs_close_devices(), so this code is redundant and
can be removed. That only user of SYNC_CLOSE is now gone, so kill the flag
completely.
