    xfs: disentagle EFI release from the extent count · 5e4b5386
    Brian Foster 提交于
    Release of the EFI either occurs based on the reference count or the
    extent count. The extent count used is either the count tracked in
    the EFI or EFD, depending on the particular situation. In either
    case, the count is initialized to the final value and thus always
    matches the current efi_next_extent value once the EFI is completely
    constructed.  For example, the EFI extent count is increased as the
    extents are logged in xfs_bmap_finish() and the full free list is
    always completely processed. Therefore, the count is guaranteed to
    be complete once the EFI transaction is committed. The EFD uses the
    efd_nextents counter to release the EFI. This counter is initialized
    to the count of the EFI when the EFD is created. Thus the EFD, as
    currently used, has no concept of partial EFI release based on
    extent count.
    
    Given that the EFI extent count is always released in whole, use of
    the extent count for reference counting is unnecessary. Remove this
    level of the API and release the EFI based on the core reference
    count. The efi_next_extent counter remains because it is still used
    to track the slot to log the next extent to free.
