This adds setup and cleanup routines of the persistent object
allocator cache.

According to ftrace analyses, accessing buffers of the DAT file
suffers indispensable overhead many times.  To mitigate the overhead,
This introduce cache framework for the persistent object allocator
(palloc) which the DAT file and ifile are using.

struct nilfs_palloc_cache represents the cache object per metadata
file using palloc.

The cache is initialized through nilfs_palloc_setup_cache() and
destroyed by nilfs_palloc_destroy_cache(); callers of the former
function will be added to individual allocators of DAT and ifile on
successive patches.

nilfs_palloc_destroy_cache() will be called from nilfs_mdt_destroy()
if the cache is attached to a metadata file.  A companion function
nilfs_palloc_clear_cache() is provided to allow releasing buffer head
references independently with the cleanup task.  This adjunctive
function will be used before invalidating pages of metadata file with
the cache.

This will hide a function call of nilfs_mdt_clear() in
nilfs_mdt_destroy().

This ensures nilfs_mdt_destroy() to do cleanup jobs included in
nilfs_mdt_clear().

This adds an optional "object size" argument to nilfs_mdt_new_common()
function; the argument specifies the size of private object attached
to a newly allocated metadata file inode.

This will afford space to keep local variables for meta data files.

The nilfs_bmap_lookup() is now a wrapper function of
nilfs_bmap_lookup_at_level().

This moves the nilfs_bmap_lookup() to a header file converting it to
an inline function and gives an opportunity for optimization.

The current metadata file code skips disk address lookup for its data
block if the buffer has a mapped flag.

This has a potential risk to cause read request to be performed
against the stale block address that GC moved, and it may lead to meta
data corruption.  The mapped flag is safe if the buffer has an
uptodate flag, otherwise it may prevent necessary update of disk
address in the next read.

This will avoid the potential problem by ensuring disk address lookup
before reading metadata block even for buffers with the mapped flag.

will get rid of nilfs_get_writer() and nilfs_put_writer() pair used to
retain a writable FS-instance for a period.

The pair functions were making up some kind of recursive lock with a
mutex, but they became overkill since the commit
201913ed.  Furthermore, they caused
the following lockdep warning because the mutex can be released by a
task which didn't lock it:

This applies block_sync_page() function to the sync_page method of
page caches for meta data files, gc page caches, and btree node
buffers.  This is a companion patch of ("nilfs2: enable sync_page
mothod") which applied the function for data pages.

This allows lock_page() for those meta data to unplug pending bio

This would fix the following failure during GC:

 nilfs_cpfile_delete_checkpoints: cannot delete block
 NILFS: GC failed during preparation: cannot delete checkpoints: err=-2

The problem was caused by a break in state consistency between page
cache and btree; the above block was removed from the btree but the
page buffering the block was remaining in the page cache in dirty
state.

This resolves the inconsistency by ensuring to clear dirty state of
the page buffering the deleted block.

   nilfs_bmap_propagate+0x14/0x2e [nilfs2]

are never called from read-only context with direct dereferencing of
pointer to a writable FS-instance.

Pekka Enberg pointed out that double error handlings found after
nilfs_transaction_end() can be avoided by separating abort operation:

 OK, I don't understand this. The only way nilfs_transaction_end() can
 fail is if we have NILFS_TI_SYNC set and we fail to construct the
 segment. But why do we want to construct a segment if we don't commit?

 I guess what I'm asking is why don't we have a separate
 nilfs_transaction_abort() function that can't fail for the erroneous
 case to avoid this double error value tracking thing?

This does the separation and renames nilfs_transaction_end() to
nilfs_transaction_commit() for clarification.

Since, some calls of these functions were used just for exclusion control
against the segment constructor, they are replaced with semaphore
operations.
