Timestamps on regular files are the last metadata that XFS does not update
transactionally. Now that we use the delaylog mode exclusively and made
the log scode scale extremly well there is no need to bypass that code for
timestamp updates. Logging all updates allows to drop a lot of code, and
will allow for further performance improvements later on.
Note that this patch drops optimized handling of fdatasync - it will be
added back in a separate commit.

Currently we need to either call IHOLD or xfs_trans_ihold on an inode when
joining it to a transaction via xfs_trans_ijoin.
This patches instead makes xfs_trans_ijoin usable on it's own by doing
an implicity xfs_trans_ihold, which also allows us to drop the third
argument. For the case where we want to hold a reference on the inode
a xfs_trans_ijoin_ref wrapper is added which does the IHOLD and marks
the inode for needing an xfs_iput. In addition to the cleaner interface
to the caller this also simplifies the implementation.

All buffers logged into the AIL are marked as delayed write.
When the AIL needs to push the buffer out, it issues an async write of the
buffer. This means that IO patterns are dependent on the order of
buffers in the AIL.
Instead of flushing the buffer, promote the buffer in the delayed
write list so that the next time the xfsbufd is run the buffer will
be flushed by the xfsbufd. Return the state to the xfsaild that the
buffer was promoted so that the xfsaild knows that it needs to cause
the xfsbufd to run to flush the buffers that were promoted.
Using the xfsbufd for issuing the IO allows us to dispatch all
buffer IO from the one queue. This means that we can make much more
enlightened decisions on what order to flush buffers to disk as
we don't have multiple places issuing IO. Optimisations to xfsbufd
will be in a future patch.

For a long time we've always stored bmap btree records in the 64bit format,
so kill off the dead 32bit type, and make sure the 64bit type is named just
xfs_bmbt_rec everywhere, without any size postfix.

xfs_trans_iget is a wrapper for xfs_iget that adds the inode to the
transaction after it is read. Except when the inode already is in the
inode cache, in which case it returns the existing locked inode with
increment lock recursion counts.
Now, no one in the tree every decrements these lock recursion counts,
so any user of this gets a potential double unlock when both the original
owner of the inode and the xfs_trans_iget caller unlock it. When looking
back in a git bisect in the historic XFS tree there was only one place
that decremented these counts, xfs_trans_iput. Introduced in commit
ca25df7a840f426eb566d52667b6950b92bb84b5 by Adam Sweeney in 1993,
and removed in commit 19f899a3ab155ff6a49c0c79b06f2f61059afaf3 by
Steve Lord in 2003. And as long as it didn't slip through git bisects
cracks never actually used in that time frame.
A quick audit of the callers of xfs_trans_iget shows that no caller
really relies on this behaviour fortunately - xfs_ialloc allows this
inode from disk so it must not be there before, and all the RT allocator
routines only every add each RT bitmap inode once.
In addition to removing lots of code and reducing the size of the inode
item this patch also avoids the double inode cache lookup in each
create/mkdir/mknod transaction.

Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history,
even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git
archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about
3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early
git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good
infrastructure for it.
Let it rip!
