This area of the code has always been a bit delicate due to the
subtleties of lock ordering. The problem is that for "normal"
alloc/dealloc, we always grab the inode locks first and the rgrp lock
later.
In order to ensure no races in looking up the unlinked, but still
allocated inodes, we need to hold the rgrp lock when we do the lookup,
which means that we can't take the inode glock.
The solution is to borrow the technique already used by NFS to solve
what is essentially the same problem (given an inode number, look up
the inode carefully, checking that it really is in the expected
state).
We cannot do that directly from the allocation code (lock ordering
again) so we give the job to the pre-existing delete workqueue and
carry on with the allocation as normal.
If we find there is no space, we do a journal flush (required anyway
if space from a deallocation is to be released) which should block
against the pending deallocations, so we should always get the space
back.

Commit 83fd9c7 changes l_level, l_requested and l_blocking of
ocfs2_lock_res from int to unsigned char. But actually it is
initially as -1(ocfs2_lock_res_init_common) which
correspoding to 255 for unsigned char. So the whole dlm lock
mechanism doesn't work now which means a disaster to ocfs2.

In commit 20cb52ebd1, titled
"xfs: simplify xfs_vm_writepage" I added an assert that any !mapped and
uptodate buffers are not dirty. That asserts turns out to trigger a lot
when running fsx on filesystems with small block sizes. The reason for
that is that the assert is simply incorrect. !mapped and uptodate
just mean this buffer covers a hole, and whenever we do a set_page_dirty
we mark all blocks in the page dirty, no matter if they have data or
not. So remove the assert, and update the comment above the condition
to match reality.

XFS does not need it's inodes to actuall be hashed in the VFS inode
cache, but we require the inode to be marked hashed for the
writeback code to work.
Insted of using insert_inode_hash, which requires a second
inode_lock roundtrip after the partial merge of the inode
scalability patches in 2.6.37-rc simply use the new hlist_add_fake
helper to mark it hashed without requiring a lock or touching a
global cache line.

The filestreams code may take the iolock on the parent inode while
holding it on a child. This is the only place in XFS where we take
both the child and parent iolock, so just telling lockdep about it
is enough. The lock flag required for that was already added as
part of the ilock lockdep annotations and unused so far.

The delayed write buffer split trace currently issues a trace for
every buffer it scans. These buffers are not necessarily queued for
delayed write. Indeed, when buffers are pinned, there can be
thousands of traces of buffers that aren't actually queued for
delayed write and the ones that are are lost in the noise. Move the
trace point to record only buffers that are split out for IO to be
issued on.

With 2.6.37-rc1, I observe sys_ioprio_set not taking the RCU lock [1]
across access to the task credentials.
Inspecting the code in fs/ioprio.c, the tasklist_lock is held for read
across the __task_cred call, which is presumably sufficient to prevent
the task credentials becoming stale.
