Dave Chinner 50e86686df xfs: always push the AIL to the target
The recent conversion of the xfsaild functionality to a work queue
introduced a hard-to-hit log space grant hang. One of the problems
discovered is a target mismatch between the item pushing loop and
the target itself.

The push trigger checks for the target increasing (i.e. new target >
current) while the push loop only pushes items that have a LSN <
current. As a result, we can get the situation where the push target
is X, the items at the tail of the AIL have LSN X and they don't get
pushed. The push work then completes thinking it is done, and cannot
be restarted until the push target increases to >= X + 1. If the
push target then never increases (because the tail is not moving),
then we never run the push work again and we stall.

Fix it by making sure log items with a LSN that matches the target
exactly are pushed during the loop.
