      xfs: remove old vmap cache · cd9640a7
      Alex Elder 提交于
      Re-apply a commit that had been reverted due to regressions
      that have since been fixed.
      
          Original commit: d2859751
          Author: Nick Piggin <npiggin@suse.de>

          XFS's vmap batching simply defers a number (up to 64) of vunmaps,
          and keeps track of them in a list. To purge the batch, it just goes
          through the list and calls vunamp on each one. This is pretty poor:
          a global TLB flush is generally still performed on each vunmap, with
          the most expensive parts of the operation being the broadcast IPIs
          and locking involved in the SMP callouts, and the locking involved
          in the vmap management -- none of these are avoided by just batching
          up the calls. I'm actually surprised it ever made much difference.
          (Now that the lazy vmap allocator is upstream, this description is
          not quite right, but the vunmap batching still doesn't seem to do
          much).
      
          Rip all this logic out of XFS completely. I will improve vmap
          performance and scalability directly in subsequent patch.

      The only change I made was to use the "new" xfs_buf_is_vmapped()
      function in a place it had been open-coded in the original.
