All of the work xfssyncd does is background functionality. There is no need for a thread per filesystem to do this work - it can al be managed by a global workqueue now they manage concurrency effectively. Introduce a new gglobal xfssyncd workqueue, and convert the periodic work to use this new functionality. To do this, use a delayed work construct to schedule the next running of the periodic sync work for the filesystem. When the sync work is complete, queue a new delayed work for the next running of the sync work. For laptop mode, we wait on completion for the sync works, so ensure that the sync work queuing interface can flush and wait for work to complete to enable the work queue infrastructure to replace the current sequence number and wakeup that is used. Because the sync work does non-trivial amounts of work, mark the new work queue as CPU intensive.
