In function rg_mblk_search, it's searching for multiple blocks in
a given state (e.g. "free"). If there's an active block reservation
its goal is the next free block of that. If the resource group
contains the dinode's goal block, that's used for the search. But
if neither is the case, it uses the rgrp's last allocated block.
That way, consecutive allocations appear after one another on media.
The problem comes in when you hit the end of the rgrp; it would never
start over and search from the beginning. This became a problem,
since if you deleted all the files and data from the rgrp, it would
never start over and find free blocks. So it had to keep searching
further out on the media to allocate blocks. This patch resets the
rd_last_alloc after it does an unsuccessful search at the end of
the rgrp.

QE aio tests uncovered a race condition in gfs2_rs_alloc where it's possible
to come out of the function with a valid ip->i_res allocation but it gets
freed before use resulting in a NULL ptr dereference.
This patch envelopes the initial short-circuit check for non-NULL ip->i_res

Pull GFS2 updates from Steven Whitehouse:
"The main feature this time is the new Orlov allocator and the patches
leading up to it which allow us to allocate new inodes from their own
allocation context, rather than borrowing that of their parent
directory. It is this change which then allows us to choose a
different location for subdirectories when required. This works
exactly as per the ext3 implementation from the users point of view.
In addition to that, we've got a speed up in gfs2_rbm_from_block()

This patch fixes a cluster coherency problem that occurs when one
node creates a file, does several writes, then a different node
tries to write to the same file. When the inode's glock is demoted,
the inode wasn't synced to the media properly because the gl_object
wasn't set. Later, the flush daemon noticed the uncommitted data
and tried to flush it, only to discover the glock was no longer locked
properly in exclusive mode. That caused an assert withdraw.

When unmounting, gfs2 does a full dlm_unlock operation on every
cached lock. This can create a very large amount of work and can
take a long time to complete. However, the vast majority of these
dlm unlock operations are unnecessary because after all the unlocks
are done, gfs2 leaves the dlm lockspace, which automatically clears
the locks of the leaving node, without unlocking each one individually.
So, gfs2 can skip explicit dlm unlocks, and use dlm_release_lockspace to
remove the locks implicitly. The one exception is when the lock's lvb is
being used. In this case, dlm_unlock is called because it may update the
lvb of the resource.

Just like ext3, this works on the root directory and any directory
with the +T flag set. Also, just like ext3, any subdirectory created
in one of the just mentioned cases will be allocated to a random
resource group (GFS2 equivalent of a block group).
If you are creating a set of directories, each of which will contain a
job running on a different node, then by setting +T on the parent
directory before creating the subdirectories, each will land up in a
different resource group, and thus resource group contention between
nodes will be kept to a minimum.

Rather than using the parent directory's allocation context, this
patch allocated the new inode earlier in the process and then uses
it to contain all the information required. As a result, we can now

This patch uses information gathered by the recent glock statistics
patch in order to derrive a boolean verdict on the congestion
status of a resource group. This is then used when making decisions
on which resource group to choose during block allocation.
The aim is to avoid resource groups which are heavily contended
by other nodes, while still ensuring locality of access wherever
possible.
Once a reservation has been made in a particular resource group
we continue to use that resource group until a new reservation is
required. This should help to ensure that we do not change resource
groups too often.

In gfs2_trans_add_bh(), gfs2 was testing if a there was a bd attached to the
buffer without having the gfs2_log_lock held. It was then assuming it would
stay attached for the rest of the function. However, without either the log
lock being held of the buffer locked, __gfs2_ail_flush() could detach bd at any
time. This patch moves the locking before the test. If there isn't a bd
already attached, gfs2 can safely allocate one and attach it before locking.
There is no way that the newly allocated bd could be on the ail list,
and thus no way for __gfs2_ail_flush() to detach it.

file_accessed() was being called by gfs2_mmap() with a shared glock. If it
needed to update the atime, it was crashing because it dirtied the inode in
gfs2_dirty_inode() without holding an exclusive lock. gfs2_dirty_inode()
checked if the caller was already holding a glock, but it didn't make sure that
the glock was in the exclusive state. Now, instead of calling file_accessed()
while holding the shared lock in gfs2_mmap(), file_accessed() is called after
grabbing and releasing the glock to update the inode. If file_accessed() needs
to update the atime, it will grab an exclusive lock in gfs2_dirty_inode().
gfs2_dirty_inode() now also checks to make sure that if the calling process has
already locked the glock, it has an exclusive lock.

Pull user namespace changes from Eric Biederman:
"This is a mostly modest set of changes to enable basic user namespace
support. This allows the code to code to compile with user namespaces
enabled and removes the assumption there is only the initial user
namespace. Everything is converted except for the most complex of the
filesystems: autofs4, 9p, afs, ceph, cifs, coda, fuse, gfs2, ncpfs,
nfs, ocfs2 and xfs as those patches need a bit more review.
The strategy is to push kuid_t and kgid_t values are far down into
subsystems and filesystems as reasonable. Leaving the make_kuid and
from_kuid operations to happen at the edge of userspace, as the values
come off the disk, and as the values come in from the network.
Letting compile type incompatible compile errors (present when user
namespaces are enabled) guide me to find the issues.
The most tricky areas have been the places where we had an implicit
union of uid and gid values and were storing them in an unsigned int.
Those places were converted into explicit unions. I made certain to
handle those places with simple trivial patches.
Out of that work I discovered we have generic interfaces for storing
quota by projid. I had never heard of the project identifiers before.
Adding full user namespace support for project identifiers accounts
for most of the code size growth in my git tree.
Ultimately there will be work to relax privlige checks from
"capable(FOO)" to "ns_capable(user_ns, FOO)" where it is safe allowing
root in a user names to do those things that today we only forbid to
non-root users because it will confuse suid root applications.
While I was pushing kuid_t and kgid_t changes deep into the audit code
I made a few other cleanups. I capitalized on the fact we process
netlink messages in the context of the message sender. I removed
usage of NETLINK_CRED, and started directly using current->tty.
Some of these patches have also made it into maintainer trees, with no
problems from identical code from different trees showing up in
linux-next.

win a game of kernel trivial pursuit."

"This is workqueue updates for v3.7-rc1. A lot of activities this
round including considerable API and behavior cleanups.
* delayed_work combines a timer and a work item. The handling of the
timer part has always been a bit clunky leading to confusing
cancelation API with weird corner-case behaviors. delayed_work is
updated to use new IRQ safe timer and cancelation now works as
expected.
* Another deficiency of delayed_work was lack of the counterpart of
mod_timer() which led to cancel+queue combinations or open-coded
timer+work usages. mod_delayed_work[_on]() are added.
These two delayed_work changes make delayed_work provide interface
and behave like timer which is executed with process context.
* A work item could be executed concurrently on multiple CPUs, which
is rather unintuitive and made flush_work() behavior confusing and
half-broken under certain circumstances. This problem doesn't
exist for non-reentrant workqueues. While non-reentrancy check
isn't free, the overhead is incurred only when a work item bounces
across different CPUs and even in simulated pathological scenario
the overhead isn't too high.
All workqueues are made non-reentrant. This removes the
distinction between flush_[delayed_]work() and
flush_[delayed_]_work_sync(). The former is now as strong as the
latter and the specified work item is guaranteed to have finished
execution of any previous queueing on return.
* In addition to the various bug fixes, Lai redid and simplified CPU
hotplug handling significantly.
* Joonsoo introduced system_highpri_wq and used it during CPU

There are two merge commits - one to pull in IRQ safe timer from

existing allocation of blocks for an inode was not aligned to the same
boundary.
This patch resolves that problem by adding the ability for gfs2_rbm_find
to search for extents of a particular minimum size. We can then use
gfs2_rbm_find for both looking for reservations, and also looking for
free blocks on an individual basis when we actually come to do the
allocation later on. As a result we only need a single set of code
to deal with both situations.
The function gfs2_rbm_from_block() is moved up rgrp.c so that it
occurs before all of its callers.
Many thanks are due to Bob for helping track down the final issue in
this patch. That fix to the rb_tree traversal and to not share
block reservations from a dirctory to its children is included here.

GFS2 uses i_mutex on its system quota inode to synchronize writes to
quota file. Since this is an internal inode to GFS2 (not part of directory
hiearchy or visible by user) we are safe to define locking rules for it. So
let's just get it its own locking class to make it clear.

When rgd->rd_free_clone is less than rgd->rd_reserved, the
unclaimed_blocks() calculation would wrap and produce
incorrect results. This patch checks for this condition
when this function is called from gfs2_mblk_search()
In addition, the use of this particular function in other
places in the code has been dropped by means of a general
clean up of gfs2_inplace_reserve(). This function is now
much easier to follow.
Also the setting of the rgd->rd_last_alloc field is corrected.

This patch improves the tracing of block reservations by
removing some corner cases and also providing more useful
detail in the traces.
A new field is added to the reservation structure to contain
the inode number. This is used since in certain contexts it is
not possible to access the inode itself to obtain this information.
As a result we can then display the inode number for all tracepoints
and also in case we dump the resource group.
The "del" tracepoint operation has been removed. This could be called
with the reservation rgrp set to NULL. That resulted in not printing
the device number, and thus making the information largely useless
anyway. Also, the conditional on the rgrp being NULL can then be
removed from the tracepoint. After this change, all the block
reservation tracepoint calls will be called with the rgrp information.
The existing ins,clm and tdel calls to the block reservation tracepoint
are sufficient to track the entire life of the block reservation.
In gfs2_block_alloc() the error detection is updated to print out
the inode number of the problematic inode. This can then be compared
against the information in the glock dump,tracepoints, etc.

When we get to the stage of allocating blocks, we know that the
resource group in question must contain enough free blocks, otherwise
gfs2_inplace_reserve() would have failed. So if we are left with only
free blocks which are reserved, then we must use those. This can happen
if another node has sneeked in and use some blocks reserved on this
node, for example. Generally this will happen very rarely and only
when the resouce group is nearly full.

This is part of a series of patches which are introducing the
gfs2_rbm structure throughout the block allocation code. The
main aim of this part is to create a search function which can
deal directly with struct gfs2_rbm. In this case it specifies
the initial position at which to start the search and also the
point at which the search terminates.
The net result of this is to clean up the search code and make
it rather more readable, and the various possible exceptions which
may occur during the search are partitioned into their own functions.
There are some bug fixes too. We should not be checking the reservations
while allocating extents - the time for that is when we are searching
for where to put the extent, not when we've already made that decision.
Also, rgblk_search had two uses, and in only one of those cases did
it make sense to check for reservations. This is fixed in the new
gfs2_rbm_find function, which has a cleaner interface.
The reservation checking has been improved by always checking for
contiguous reservations, and returning the first free block after
all contiguous reservations. This is done under the spin lock to
ensure consistancy of the tree.
The allocation of extents is now in all cases done by the existing
allocation code, and if there is an active reservation, that is updated
after the fact. Again this is done under the spin lock, since it entails
changing the lookup key for the reservation in question.

This patch introduces a new structure, gfs2_rbm, which is a
tuple of a resource group, a bitmap within the resource group
and an offset within that bitmap. This is designed to make
manipulating these sets of variables easier. There is also a
new helper function which converts this representation back
to a disk block address.
In addition, the rbtree nodes which are used for the reservations
were not being correctly initialised, which is now fixed. Also,
the tracing was not passing through the inode where it should
have been. That is mostly fixed aside from one corner case. This
needs to be revisited since there can also be a NULL rgrp in
some cases which results in the device being incorrect in the
trace.
This is intended to be the first step towards cleaning up some
of the allocation code, and some further bug fixes.

The rs_requested field is left over from the original allocation
code, however this should have been a parameter passed to the
various functions from gfs2_inplace_reserve() and not a member of the
reservation structure as the value is not required after the
initial allocation.
This also helps simplify the code since we no longer need to set
the rs_requested to zero. Also the gfs2_inplace_release()
function can also be simplified since the reservation structure
will always be defined when it is called, and the only remaining
task is to unlock the rgrp if required. It can also now be
called unconditionally too, resulting in a further simplification.

Modify quota_send_warning to take struct kqid instead a type and

When sending netlink broadcasts always convert uids and quota
identifiers into the intial user namespace. There is as yet no way to
send a netlink broadcast message with different contents to receivers
in different namespaces, so for the time being just map all of the
identifiers into the initial user namespace which preserves the
current behavior.
Change the callers of quota_send_warning in gfs2, xfs and dquot
to generate a struct kqid to pass to quota send warning. When
all of the user namespaces convesions are complete a struct kqid
values will be availbe without need for conversion, but a conversion
is needed now to avoid needing to convert everything at once.

Update the quotactl user space interface to successfull compile with
user namespaces support enabled and to hand off quota identifiers to
lower layers of the kernel in struct kqid instead of type and qid
pairs.
The quota on function is not converted because while it takes a quota
type and an id. The id is the on disk quota format to use, which
is something completely different.
The signature of two struct quotactl_ops methods were changed to take
struct kqid argumetns get_dqblk and set_dqblk.
The dquot, xfs, and ocfs2 implementations of get_dqblk and set_dqblk
are minimally changed so that the code continues to work with
the change in parameter type.
This is the first in a series of changes to always store quota
identifiers in the kernel in struct kqid and only use raw type and qid
values when interacting with on disk structures or userspace. Always
using struct kqid internally makes it hard to miss places that need
conversion to or from the kernel internal values.

Pull GFS2 fixes from Steven Whitehouse:
"Here are three GFS2 fixes for the current kernel tree. These are all
related to the block reservation code which was added at the merge
window. That code will be getting an update at the forthcoming merge
window too. In the mean time though there are a few smaller issues
which should be fixed.
The first patch resolves an issue with write sizes of greater than 32
bits with the size hinting code. The second ensures that the
allocation data structure is initialised when using xattrs and the
third takes into account allocations which may have been made by other
nodes which affect a reservation on the local node."
* git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/steve/gfs2-3.0-fixes:
GFS2: Take account of blockages when using reserved blocks
GFS2: Fix missing allocation data for set/remove xattr
GFS2: Make write size hinting code common
The claim_reserved_blks() function was not taking account of
the possibility of "blockages" while performing allocation.
This can be caused by another node allocating something in
the same extent which has been reserved locally.
This patch tests for this condition and then skips the remainder
of the reservation in this case. This is a relatively rare event,
so that it should not affect the general performance improvement
which the block reservations provide.
The claim_reserved_blks() function also appears not to be able
to deal with reservations which cross bitmap boundaries, but
that can be dealt with in a future patch since we don't generate
boundary crossing reservations currently.

Since the moment writes to quota files are using block device page cache and
space for quota structures is reserved at the moment they are first accessed we
have no reason to sync quota before inode writeback. In fact this order is now
only harmful since quota information can easily change during inode writeback
(either because conversion of delayed-allocated extents or simply because of
allocation of new blocks for simple filesystems not using page_mkwrite).
So move syncing of quota information after writeback of inodes into ->sync_fs
method. This way we do not have to use ->quota_sync callback which is primarily
intended for use by quotactl syscall anyway and we get rid of calling
->sync_fs() twice unnecessarily. We skip quota syncing for OCFS2 since it does
proper quota journalling in all cases (unlike ext3, ext4, and reiserfs which
also support legacy non-journalled quotas) and thus there are no dirty quota
structures.

This patch fixes buffer_head double free in following code path:
gfs2_block_map
=> gfs2_meta_inode_buffer
=> gfs2_meta_indirect_buffer
=> gfs2_meta_read
=> release_metapath
gfs2_block_map calls gfs2_meta_inode_buffer with &mp.mp_bh[0]
as an argument. mp.mp_bh are filled with zero at the beginning
of gfs2_block_map.
If gfs2_meta_inode_buffer returns non-zero value, gfs2_block_map
calls release_metapath to free buffers chained to mp.mp_bh.
release_metapath checks each slot of mp.mp_bh[i] and
free(with brelse) unless the slot is filled with NULL.
&mp.mp_bh[0] passed to gfs2_meta_inode_buffer is filled at
gfs2_meta_read. gfs2_meta_read is filled a buffer allocated with
gfs2_getbuf even if EIO occurs. When EIO occurs, the allocated buffer
is brelse'ed though the pointer(wrong poiner) points the brelse'ed is
passed back to caller via an argument bhp.
gfs2_meta_indirect_buffer, the caller also pass the wrong pointer
to its caller with EIO. Finally gfs2_block_map gets both EIO and
&mp.mp_bh[0] filled with the wrong pointer. release_metapath
calls brelse again on the wrong pointer.

Instead of reading in the resource groups when gfs2 is checking
for free space to allocate from, gfs2 can store the necessary infromation
in the resource group's lvb. Also, instead of searching for unlinked
inodes in every resource group that's checked for free space, gfs2 can
store the number of unlinked but inodes in the lvb, and only check for
unlinked inodes if it will find some.
The first time a resource group is locked, the lvb must initialized.
Since this involves counting the unlinked inodes in the resource group,
this takes a little extra time. But after that, if the resource group
is locked with GL_SKIP, the buffer head won't be read in unless it's
actually needed.
Enabling the resource groups lvbs is done via the rgrplvb mount option. If
this option isn't set, the lvbs will still be set and updated, but they won't

For the glocks and glstats seq_files, which are exposed via debugfs
we should cache the most recent hash bucket, along with the offset
into that bucket. This allows us to restart from that point, rather
than having to begin at the beginning each time.
This is an idea from Eric Dumazet, however I've slightly extended it
so that if the position from which we are due to start is at any
point beyond the last cached point, we start from the last cached
point, plus whatever is the appropriate offset. I don't really expect
people to be lseeking around these files, but if they did so with only
positive offsets, then we'd still get some of the benefit of using a
cached offset.
With my simple test of around 200k entries in the file, I'm seeing
an approx 10x speed up.

As per Al Viro's suggestion, this increases the buffer size used
for these two files. This provides a speed up of slightly less than
8x (i.e. proportional to the buffer size) for cases when we have

When we read an invalid block from the journal, we should not call
withdraw, but simply print a message and return an error. It is
up to the caller to then handle that error. In the case of mount
that means a failed mount, rather than a withdraw (requiring a
reboot). In the case of recovering another nodes journal then
we return an error via the uevent.

This patch lengthens the lifespan of the reservations structure for
inodes. Before, they were allocated and deallocated for every write
operation. With this patch, they are allocated when the first write
occurs, and deallocated when the last process closes the file.
It's more efficient to do it this way because it saves GFS2 a lot of
unnecessary allocates and frees. It also gives us more flexibility
for the future: (1) we can now fold the qadata structure back into
the structure and save those alloc/frees, (2) we can use this for
multi-block reservations.

This is a second attempt at a patch that adds rgrp information to the
block allocation trace point for GFS2. As suggested, the patch was
modified to list the rgrp information _after_ the fields that exist today.
Again, the reason for this patch is to allow us to trace and debug
problems with the block reservations patch, which is still in the works.
We can debug problems with reservations if we can see what block allocations
result from the block reservations. It may also be handy in figuring out
if there are problems in rgrp free space accounting. In other words,
we can use it to track the rgrp and its free space along side the allocations
that are taking place.

This allows comparing hash and len in one operation on 64-bit

since that is the case we care most about.
The use of anonymous struct/unions hides the alternate 64-bit approach
from most users, the exception being a few cases where we initialize a
'struct qstr' with a static initializer. This makes the problematic
cases use a new QSTR_INIT() helper function for that (but initializing
just the name pointer with a "{ .name = xyzzy }" initializer remains
valid, as does just copying another qstr structure).

The "nodir" mode (statically assign master nodes instead
of using the resource directory) has always been highly
experimental, and never seriously used. This commit
fixes a number of problems, making nodir much more usable.
- Major change to recovery: recover all locks and restart
all in-progress operations after recovery. In some
cases it's not possible to know which in-progess locks
to recover, so recover all. (Most require recovery
in nodir mode anyway since rehashing changes most
master nodes.)
- Change the way nodir mode is enabled, from a command
line mount arg passed through gfs2, into a sysfs
file managed by dlm_controld, consistent with the
other config settings.
- Allow recovering MSTCPY locks on an rsb that has not
yet been turned into a master copy.
- Ignore RCOM_LOCK and RCOM_LOCK_REPLY recovery messages
from a previous, aborted recovery cycle. Base this
on the local recovery status not being in the state
where any nodes should be sending LOCK messages for the
current recovery cycle.
- Hold rsb lock around dlm_purge_mstcpy_locks() because it
may run concurrently with dlm_recover_master_copy().
- Maintain highbast on process-copy lkb's (in addition to
the master as is usual), because the lkb can switch
back and forth between being a master and being a
process copy as the master node changes in recovery.
- When recovering MSTCPY locks, flag rsb's that have
non-empty convert or waiting queues for granting
at the end of recovery. (Rename flag from LOCKS_PURGED
to RECOVER_GRANT and similar for the recovery function,
because it's not only resources with purged locks
that need grant a grant attempt.)
- Replace a couple of unnecessary assertion panics with
error messages.

This is another clean up in the logging code. This per-transaction

number of buffers in a transaction was correct, however that counter
was only used to check the number of buffers in the bd_list_tr, plus
an assert at the end of each transaction. With the assert now changed

Prior to this patch, we have two ways of sending i/o to the log.
One of those is used when we need to allocate both the data
to be written itself and also a buffer head to submit it. This
is done via sb_getblk and friends. This is used mostly for writing
log headers.
The other method is used when writing blocks which have some
in-place counterpart. This is the case for all the metadata
blocks which are journalled, and when journaled data is in use,
for unescaped journalled data blocks.
This patch replaces both of those two methods, and about half
a dozen separate i/o submission points with a single i/o
submission function. We also go direct to bio rather than
using buffer heads, since this allows us to build i/o
requests of the maximum size for the block device in
question. It also reduces the memory required for flushing
the log, which can be very useful in low memory situations.

This patch instructs DLM to prevent an "in place" conversion, where the
lock just stays on the granted queue, and instead forces the conversion to
the back of the convert queue. This is done on upward conversions only.
This is useful in cases where, for example, a lock is frequently needed in
PR on one node, but another node needs it temporarily in EX to update it.
This may happen, for example, when the rindex is being updated by gfs2_grow.
The gfs2_grow needs to have the lock in EX, but the other nodes need to
re-read it to retrieve the updates. The glock is already granted in PR on
the non-growing nodes, so this prevents them from continually re-granting
the lock in PR, and forces the EX from gfs2_grow to go through.

This patch allows caching of the rindex glock. We were previously

the rindex inode to be invalidated, which caused us to re-read
rindex at the next access. However, it caused the glock to be

sections of the file that are already completely allocated.

We already send both a pre and post flush to the block device
when writing a journal header. There is no need to wait for

In order to ensure that we've got enough buffer heads for flushing
the journal, the orignal code used __GFP_NOFAIL when performing
this allocation. Here we dispense with that in favour of using a
mempool. This should improve efficiency in low memory conditions
since flushing the journal is a good way to get memory back, we
don't want to be spinning, waiting on memory allocations. The
buffers which are allocated via this mempool are fairly short lived,
so that we'll recycle them pretty quickly.
Although there are other memory allocations which occur during the
journal flush process, this is the one which can potentially require
the most memory, so the most important one to fix.
The amount of memory reserved is a fixed amount, and we should not need
to scale it when there are a greater number of filesystems in use.

This patch adds a call to gfs2_rindex_update from function gfs2_blk2rgrpd
and removes calls to it that are made redundant by it. The problem is
that a gfs2_grow can add rgrps to the rindex, then put those rgrps into
use, thus rendering the rindex we read in at mount time incomplete.

Over time, we've slowly eliminated the use of sd_rindex_mutex.
Up to this point, it was only used in two places: function
gfs2_ri_total (which totals the file system size by reading
and parsing the rindex file) and function gfs2_rindex_update
which updates the rgrps in memory. Both of these functions have
the rindex glock to protect them, so the rindex is unnecessary.
Since gfs2_grow writes to the rindex via the meta_fs, the mutex
is in the wrong order according to the normal rules. This patch
eliminates the mutex entirely to avoid the problem.

This patch fixes an error path in function gfs2_rindex_update
that leaves the rindex mutex held.

This patch sorts the ordered write list for GFS2 writes.
This increases the throughput for simultaneous writes.
For example, if you have ten processes, all doing:
dd if=/dev/zero of=/mnt/gfs2/fileX
on different files, the throughput will be much better.

The FITRIM ioctl provides an alternative way to send discard requests to
the underlying device. Using the discard mount option results in every
freed block generating a discard request to the block device. This can
be slow, since many block devices can only process discard requests of
larger sizes, and also such operations can be time consuming.
Rather than using the discard mount option, FITRIM allows a sweep of the
filesystem on an occasional basis, and also to optionally avoid sending
down discard requests for smaller regions.
In GFS2 FITRIM will work at resource group granularity. There is a flag
for each resource group which keeps track of which resource groups have
been trimmed. This flag is reset whenever a deallocation occurs in the
resource group, and set whenever a successful FITRIM of that resource
group has taken place. This helps to reduce repeated discard requests
for the same block ranges, again improving performance.

gfs2_log_get_buf() and gfs2_log_fake_buf() are both used
only in lops.c, so move them next to their callers and they
can then become static.
