xfs_attr_inactive() is supposed to clean up the attribute fork when
the inode is being freed. While it removes attribute fork extents,
it completely ignores attributes in local format, which means that
there can still be active attributes on the inode after
xfs_attr_inactive() has run.
This leads to problems with concurrent inode writeback - the in-core
inode attribute fork is removed without locking on the assumption
that nothing will be attempting to access the attribute fork after a
call to xfs_attr_inactive() because it isn't supposed to exist on
disk any more.
To fix this, make xfs_attr_inactive() completely remove all traces
of the attribute fork from the inode, regardless of it's state.
Further, also remove the in-core attribute fork structure safely so
that there is nothing further that needs to be done by callers to
clean up the attribute fork. This means we can remove the in-core
and on-disk attribute forks atomically.
Also, on error simply remove the in-memory attribute fork. There's
nothing that can be done with it once we have failed to remove the
on-disk attribute fork, so we may as well just blow it away here
anyway.

xfs_attr3_leaf_remove() removes an attribute from an attr leaf block. If
the attribute nameval data happens to be at the start of the nameval
region, a new start offset (firstused) for the region is calculated
(since the region grows from the tail of the block to the start). Once
the new firstused is calculated, it is checked for zero in an apparent
overflow check.
Now that the in-core firstused is 32-bit, overflow is not possible and
this check can be removed. Since the purpose for this check is not
documented and appears to exist since the port to Linux, be conservative
and replace it with an assert.

The on-disk xfs_attr3_leaf_hdr structure firstused field is 16-bit and
subject to overflow when fs block size is 64k. The field is typically
initialized to block size when an attr leaf block is initialized. This
problem is demonstrated by assert failures when running xfstests
generic/117 on an fs with 64k blocks.
To support the existing attr leaf block algorithms for insertion,
rebalance and entry movement, increase the size of the in-core firstused
field to 32-bit and handle the potential overflow on conversion to/from
the on-disk structure. If the overflow condition occurs, set a special
value in the firstused field that is translated back on header read. The
special value is only required in the case of an empty 64k attr block. A
value of zero is used because firstused is initialized to the block size
and grows backwards from there. Furthermore, the attribute block header
occupies the first bytes of the block. Thus, a value of zero has no
other legitimate meaning for this structure. Two new conversion helpers
are created to manage the conversion of firstused to and from disk.

The firstused field of the xfs_attr3_leaf_hdr structure is subject to an
overflow when fs blocksize is 64k. In preparation to handle this
overflow in the header conversion functions, pass the attribute geometry
to the functions that convert the in-core structure to and from the
on-disk structure.

We now have several superblock loggin functions that are identical
except for the transaction reservation and whether it shoul dbe a
synchronous transaction or not. Consolidate these all into a single
function, a single reserveration and a sync flag and call it
xfs_sync_sb().
Also, xfs_mod_sb() is not really a modification function - it's the
operation of logging the superblock buffer. hence change the name of
it to reflect this.
Note that we have to change the mp->m_update_flags that are passed
around at mount time to a boolean simply to indicate a superblock
update is needed.

When we log changes to the superblock, we first have to write them
to the on-disk buffer, and then log that. Right now we have a
complex bitfield based arrangement to only write the modified field
to the buffer before we log it.
This used to be necessary as a performance optimisation because we
logged the superblock buffer in every extent or inode allocation or
freeing, and so performance was extremely important. We haven't done
this for years, however, ever since the lazy superblock counters
pulled the superblock logging out of the transaction commit
fast path.
Hence we have a bunch of complexity that is not necessary that makes
writing the in-core superblock to disk much more complex than it
needs to be. We only need to log the superblock now during
management operations (e.g. during mount, unmount or quota control
operations) so it is not a performance critical path anymore.
As such, remove the complex field based logging mechanism and
replace it with a simple conversion function similar to what we use
for all other on-disk structures.
This means we always log the entirity of the superblock, but again
because we rarely modify the superblock this is not an issue for log
bandwidth or CPU time. Indeed, if we do log the superblock
frequently, delayed logging will minimise the impact of this
overhead.
