xfs: add log item pinning error injection tag
Add an error injection tag to force log items in the AIL to the pinned state. This option can be used by test infrastructure to induce head behind tail conditions. Specifically, this is intended to be used by xfstests to reproduce log recovery problems after failed/corrupted log writes overwrite the last good tail LSN in the log. When enabled, AIL push attempts see log items in the AIL in the pinned state. This stalls metadata writeback and thus prevents the current tail of the log from moving forward. When disabled, subsequent AIL pushes observe the log items in their appropriate state and filesystem operation continues as normal.
