Delayed logging can insert tens of thousands of log items into the
AIL at the same LSN. When the committing of log commit records
occur, we can get insertions occurring at an LSN that is not at the
end of the AIL. If there are thousands of items in the AIL on the
tail LSN, each insertion has to walk the AIL to find the correct
place to insert the new item into the AIL. This can consume large
amounts of CPU time and block other operations from occurring while
the traversals are in progress.

To avoid this repeated walk, use a AIL cursor to record
where we should be inserting the new items into the AIL without
having to repeat the walk. The cursor infrastructure already
provides this functionality for push walks, so is a simple extension
of existing code. While this will not avoid the initial walk, it
will avoid repeating it tens of thousands of times during a single
checkpoint commit.

This version includes logic improvements from Christoph Hellwig.

On xfs exports, nfsd is incorrectly returning ENOENT instead of
ESTALE on attempts to use a filehandle of a deleted file (spotted
with pynfs test PUTFH3).  The ENOENT was coming from xfs_iget.

(It's tempting to wonder whether we should just map all xfs_iget
errors to ESTALE, but I don't believe so--xfs_iget can also return
ENOMEM at least, which we wouldn't want mapped to ESTALE.)

While we're at it, the other return of ENOENT in xfs_nfs_get_inode()
also looks wrong.

The following script from Wu Fengguang shows very bad behaviour in XFS
when aggressively dirtying data during a sync on XFS, with sync times
up to almost 10 times as long as ext4.

A large part of the issue is that XFS writes data out itself two times
in the ->sync_fs method, overriding the livelock protection in the core
writeback code, and another issue is the lock-less xfs_ioend_wait call,
which doesn't prevent new ioend from being queue up while waiting for
the count to reach zero.

This patch removes the XFS-internal sync calls and relies on the VFS
to do it's work just like all other filesystems do.  Note that the
i_iocount wait which is rather suboptimal is simply removed here.
We already do it in ->write_inode, which keeps the current supoptimal
behaviour.  We'll eventually need to remove that as well, but that's
material for a separate commit.

Split the guts of xfs_itruncate_finish that loop over the existing extents
and calls xfs_bunmapi on them into a new helper, xfs_itruncate_externs.
Make xfs_attr_inactive call it directly instead of xfs_itruncate_finish,
which allows to simplify the latter a lot, by only letting it deal with
the data fork.  As a result xfs_itruncate_finish is renamed to
xfs_itruncate_data to make its use case more obvious.

Also remove the sync parameter from xfs_itruncate_data, which has been
unessecary since the introduction of the busy extent list in 2002, and
completely dead code since 2003 when the XFS_BMAPI_ASYNC parameter was
made a no-op.

I can't actually see why the xfs_attr_inactive needs to set the transaction
sync, but let's keep this patch simple and without changes in behaviour.
