We always punt async buffered writes to an io-wq helper, as the core kernel does not have IOCB_NOWAIT support for that. Most buffered async writes complete very quickly, as it's just a copy operation. This means that doing multiple locking roundtrips on the shared wqe lock for each buffered write is wasteful. Additionally, buffered writes are hashed work items, which means that any buffered write to a given file is serialized. Keep identicaly hashed work items contiguously in @wqe->work_list, and track a tail for each hash bucket. On dequeue of a hashed item, splice all of the same hash in one go using the tracked tail. Until the batch is done, the caller doesn't have to synchronize with the wqe or worker locks again. Signed-off-by:
