Dave Kleikamp dc5798d9a7 [PATCH] JFS: Changes for larger page size
JFS code has always assumed a page size of 4K.  This patch fixes the
non-pagecache uses of pages to deal with larger pages.

Dave Kleikamp d2e83707ed [PATCH] JFS: Simplify creation of new iag
JFS was creating a new IAG (inode aggregate group) in one address
space, and afterwards, accessing it from another.  This could lead to
complications when cache pages contain more than one page of jfs
metadata.  This patch causes the IAG to be initialized in the same
address space that it is subsequently accessed with.

This also elimitates an I/O, but IAG's aren't created too often.

Dave Kleikamp 66f3131f54 [PATCH] JFS: reduce number of synchronous transactions
Use an inline pxd list rather than an xad list in the xadlock.
When the number of extents being modified can fit with the xadlock,
a transaction can be committed asynchronously.  Using a list of
pxd's instead of xad's allows us to fit 4 extents, rather than 2.

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!
