[ Upstream commit 696a5620 ]

The log covering background task used to be part of the xfssyncd
workqueue. That workqueue was removed as of commit 5889608d ("xfs:
syncd workqueue is no more") and the associated work item scheduled
to the xfs-log wq. The latter is used for log buffer I/O completion.

Since xfs_log_worker() can invoke a log flush, a deadlock is
possible between the xfs-log and xfs-cil workqueues. Consider the
following codepath from xfs_log_worker():

xfs_log_worker()
  xfs_log_force()
    _xfs_log_force()
      xlog_cil_force()
        xlog_cil_force_lsn()
          xlog_cil_push_now()
            flush_work()

The above is in xfs-log wq context and blocked waiting on the
completion of an xfs-cil work item. Concurrently, the cil push in
progress can end up blocked here:

xlog_cil_push_work()
  xlog_cil_push()
    xlog_write()
      xlog_state_get_iclog_space()
        xlog_wait(&log->l_flush_wait, ...)

The above is in xfs-cil context waiting on log buffer I/O
completion, which executes in xfs-log wq context. In this scenario
both workqueues are deadlocked waiting on eachother.

Add a new workqueue specifically for the high level log covering and
ail pushing worker, as was the case prior to commit 5889608d.
