transaction within each such operation may involve multiple locking of AGF
buffer. While the freeing extent function has sorted the extents based on
AGF number before entering into transaction, however, when the file system
space is very limited, the allocation of space would try every AGF to get
space allocated, this could potentially cause out-of-order locking, thus
deadlock could happen. This fix mitigates the scarce space for allocation
by setting aside a few blocks without reservation, and avoid deadlock by
maintaining ascending order of AGF locking.

When we stop allocating percpu memory for not-possible CPUs we must not touch

is to test cpu_possible() or to use for_each_cpu().
This patch is a kernel-wide sweep of all instances of NR_CPUS. I found very
few instances of this bug, if any. But the patch converts lots of open-coded
test to use the preferred helper macros.

xfs_bmap_search_multi_extents() wrapper function that I introduced in mod
xfs-linux:xfs-kern:207393a. The function was added as a wrapper around
xfs_bmap_do_search_extents() to avoid breaking the top-of-tree CXFS
interface. The idea of the function was basically to extract the target
extent buffer (if muli- level extent allocation mode), then call
xfs_bmap_do_search_extents() with either a pointer to the first extent in
the target buffer or a pointer to the first extent in the file, depending
on which extent mode was being used. However, in addition to locating the
target extent record for block bno, xfs_bmap_do_search_extents() also sets
four parameters needed by the caller: *lastx, *eofp, *gotp, *prevp.
Passing only the target extent buffer to xfs_bmap_do_search_extents()
causes *eofp to be set incorrectly if the extent is at the end of the
target list but there are actually more extents in the next er_extbuf.
Likewise, if the extent is the first one in the buffer but NOT the first
in the file, *prevp is incorrectly set to NULL. Adding the needed
functionality to xfs_bmap_search_multi_extents() to re-set any incorrectly
set fields is redundant and makes the call to xfs_bmap_do_search_extents()
not make much sense when multi-level extent allocation mode is being used.
This mod basically extracts the two functional components from
xfs_bmap_do_search_extents(), with the intent of obsoleting/removing
xfs_bmap_do_search_extents() after the CXFS mult-level in-core extent
changes are checked in. The two components are: 1) The binary search to
locate the target extent record, and 2) Setting the four parameters needed
by the caller (*lastx, *eofp, *gotp, *prevp). Component 1: I created a
new function in xfs_inode.c called xfs_iext_bno_to_ext(), which executes
the binary search to find the target extent record.
xfs_bmap_search_multi_extents() has been modified to call
xfs_iext_bno_to_ext() rather than xfs_bmap_do_search_extents(). Component
2: The parameter setting functionality has been added to
xfs_bmap_search_multi_extents(), eliminating the need for
xfs_bmap_do_search_extents(). These changes make the removal of
xfs_bmap_do_search_extents() trival once the CXFS changes are in place.
They also allow us to maintain the current XFS interface, using the new
search function introduced in mod xfs-linux:xfs-kern:207393a.

functionality, building upon the new layout introduced in mod
xfs-linux:xfs-kern:207390a. The new multi-level extent allocations are
only required for heavily fragmented files, so the old-style linear extent
list is used on files until the extents reach a pre-determined size of 4k.
4k buffers are used because this is the system page size on Linux i386 and
systems with larger page sizes don't seem to gain much, if anything, by
using their native page size as the extent buffer size. Also, using 4k
extent buffers everywhere provides a consistent interface for CXFS across
different platforms. The 4k extent buffers are managed by an indirection
array (xfs_ext_irec_t) which is basically just a pointer array with a bit
of extra information to keep track of the number of extents in each buffer
as well as the extent offset of each buffer. Major changes include: -
Add multi-level in-core file extent functionality to the xfs_iext_
subroutines introduced in mod: xfs-linux:xfs-kern:207390a - Introduce 13
new subroutines which add functionality for multi-level in-core file

Migrate a page with buffers without requiring writeback
This introduces a new address space operation migratepage() that may be used
by a filesystem to implement its own version of page migration.
A version is provided that migrates buffers attached to pages. Some
filesystems (ext2, ext3, xfs) are modified to utilize this feature.
The swapper address space operation are modified so that a regular
migrate_page() will occur for anonymous pages without writeback (migrate_pages
forces every anonymous page to have a swap entry).

attribute insertion fails. Long term solution would be to make the inode
creation and attribute insertion atomic.
