__xfs_buf_ioend can only resubmit the buffer for asynchronous
writes, which means the retry handling xfs_buf_iowait is not needed.
Because of this can stop returning a value from __xfs_buf_ioend and
just release the buffer for async I/O that does not require retries.
Also drop the __-prefix now that the semantics are straight forward.

Currently the buffer cache adds a reference to b_hold for buffers that
are on the LRU. This seems to go all the way back and allows releasing
buffers from the LRU using xfs_buf_rele. But it makes xfs_buf_rele
really complicated in differs from how other LRUs are implemented in
Linux.
Switch to not having a reference for buffers in the LRU, and use a
separate negative hold value to mark buffers as dead. This simplifies
xfs_buf_rele, which now just deal with the last "real" reference,
and prepares for using the lockref primitive.
This also removes the b_lock protection for removing buffers from the
buffer hash. This is the desired outcome because the rhashtable is
fully internally synchronized, and previously the lock was mostly
held out of ordering constrains in xfs_buf_rele_cached.

The CIL push has seen the deadlock, so it has aborted the push and
is running CIL checkpoint completion to abort all the items in the
checkpoint. This calls ->iop_unpin(remove = true) to clean up the
log items in the checkpoint.
When a buffer log item is unpined like this, it needs to lock the
buffer to run io completion to correctly fail the buffer and run all
the required completions to fail attached log items as well. In this
case, the attempt to lock the buffer on unpin is hanging because the
buffer is already locked.
I suspected a leaked XFS_BLI_HOLD state because of XFS_BLI_STALE
handling changes I was testing, so I went looking for
pin events on HOLD buffers and unpin events on locked buffer. That
isolated this one buffer with these two events:
xfs_buf_item_pin: dev 251:6 daddr 0xa910 bbcount 0x2 hold 2 pincount 0 lock 0 flags DONE|KMEM recur 0 refcount 1 bliflags HOLD|DIRTY|LOGGED liflags DIRTY
....
xfs_buf_item_unpin: dev 251:6 daddr 0xa910 bbcount 0x2 hold 4 pincount 1 lock 0 flags DONE|KMEM recur 0 refcount 1 bliflags DIRTY liflags ABORTED
Firstly, bbcount = 0x2, which means it is not a single sector
structure. That rules out every xfs_trans_bhold() case except one:
dquot buffers.
Then hung task dumping gave this trace:

Yup, another test run by check-parallel is running drop_caches
concurrently and the dquot shrinker for the hung filesystem is
running. That's trying to flush a dirty dquot from reclaim context,
and it waiting on a log force to complete. xfs_qm_dqflush is called
with the dquot buffer held locked, and so we've called
xfs_log_force() with that buffer locked.
Now the log force is waiting for a workqueue flush to complete, and
that workqueue flush is waiting of CIL checkpoint processing to
finish.
The CIL checkpoint processing is aborting all the log items it has,
and that requires locking aborted buffers to cancel them.
Now, normally this isn't a problem if we are issuing a log force
to unpin an object, because the ->iop_unpin() method wakes pin
waiters first. That results in the pin waiter finishing off whatever
it was doing, dropping the lock and then xfs_buf_item_unpin() can
lock the buffer and fail it.
However, xfs_qm_dqflush() is waiting on the -dquot- unpin event, not
the dquot buffer unpin event, and so it never gets woken and so does
not drop the buffer lock.
Inodes do not have this problem, as they can only be written from
one spot (->iop_push) whilst dquots can be written from multiple
places (memory reclaim, ->iop_push, xfs_dq_dqpurge, and quotacheck).
The reason that the dquot buffer has an attached buffer log item is
that it has been recently allocated. Initialisation of the dquot
buffer logs the buffer directly, thereby pinning it in memory. We
then modify the dquot in a separate operation, and have memory
reclaim racing with a shutdown and we trigger this deadlock.
check-parallel reproduces this reliably on 1kB FSB filesystems with
quota enabled because it does all of these things concurrently
without having to explicitly write tests to exercise these corner
case conditions.
xfs_qm_dquot_logitem_push() doesn't have this deadlock because it
checks if the dquot is pinned before locking the dquot buffer and
skipping it if it is pinned. This means the xfs_qm_dqunpin_wait()
log force in xfs_qm_dqflush() never triggers and we unlock the
buffer safely allowing a concurrent shutdown to fail the buffer
appropriately.
xfs_qm_dqpurge() could have this problem as it is called from
quotacheck and we might have allocated dquot buffers when recording
the quota updates. This can be fixed by calling
xfs_qm_dqunpin_wait() before we lock the dquot buffer. Because we
hold the dquot locked, nothing will be able to add to the pin count
between the unpin_wait and the dqflush callout, so this now makes
xfs_qm_dqpurge() safe against this race.
xfs_qm_dquot_isolate() can also be fixed this same way but, quite
frankly, we shouldn't be doing IO in memory reclaim context. If the
dquot is pinned or dirty, simply rotate it and let memory reclaim
come back to it later, same as we do for inodes.
This then gets rid of the nasty issue in xfs_qm_flush_one() where
quotacheck writeback races with memory reclaim flushing the dquots.
We can lift xfs_qm_dqunpin_wait() up into this code, then get rid of
the "can't get the dqflush lock" buffer write to cycle the dqlfush
lock and enable it to be flushed again. checking if the dquot is
pinned and returning -EAGAIN so that the dquot walk will revisit the
dquot again later.
Finally, with xfs_qm_dqunpin_wait() lifted into all the callers,
we can remove it from the xfs_qm_dqflush() code.

atomic context gets caught more easily.

xfs_buf_get_maps has a single caller, and can just be open coded there.
When doing that, stop handling the allocation failure as we always pass
__GFP_NOFAIL to the slab allocator, and use the proper kcalloc helper for
array allocations.

We never allocate a buffer without backing memory. Simplify the call
chain by calling xfs_buf_alloc_backing_mem from _xfs_buf_alloc. To
avoid a forward declaration, move _xfs_buf_alloc down a bit in the
file.
Also drop the pointless _-prefix from _xfs_buf_alloc.

The fallback buffer allocation path currently open codes a suboptimal
version of vmalloc to allocate pages that are then mapped into
vmalloc space. Switch to using vmalloc instead, which uses all the
optimizations in the common vmalloc code, and removes the need to
track the backing pages in the xfs_buf structure.

Unmapped buffer access is a pain, so kill it. The switch to large
folios means we rarely pay a vmap penalty for large buffers,
so this functionality is largely unnecessary now.

Now that we have the buffer cache using the folio API, we can extend
the use of folios to allocate high order folios for multi-page
buffers rather than an array of single pages that are then vmapped
into a contiguous range.
This creates a new type of single folio buffers that can have arbitrary
order in addition to the existing multi-folio buffers made up of many
single page folios that get vmapped. The single folio is for now
stashed into the existing b_pages array, but that will go away entirely
later in the series and remove the temporary page vs folio typing issues
that only work because the two structures currently can be used largely
interchangeable.
The code that allocates buffers will optimistically attempt a high
order folio allocation as a fast path if the buffer size is a power
of two and thus fits into a folio. If this high order allocation
fails, then we fall back to the existing multi-folio allocation
code. This now forms the slow allocation path, and hopefully will be
largely unused in normal conditions except for buffers with size
that are not a power of two like larger remote xattrs.
This should improve performance of large buffer operations (e.g.
large directory block sizes) as we should now mostly avoid the
expense of vmapping large buffers (and the vmap lock contention that
can occur) as well as avoid the runtime pressure that frequently
accessing kernel vmapped pages put on the TLBs.
Based on a patch from Dave Chinner <dchinner@redhat.com>, but mutilated
beyond recognition.

Since commit 59bb47985c ("mm, sl[aou]b: guarantee natural alignment
for kmalloc(power-of-two)", kmalloc and friends guarantee that power of
two sized allocations are naturally aligned. Limit our use of kmalloc
for buffers to these power of two sizes and remove the fallback to
the page allocator for this case, but keep a check in addition to
trusting the slab allocator to get the alignment right.
Also refactor the kmalloc path to reuse various calculations for the
size and gfp flags.

Lift handling of shmem and slab backed buffers into xfs_buf_alloc_pages
and rename the result to xfs_buf_alloc_backing_mem. This shares more
code and ensures uncached buffers can also use slab, which slightly
reduces the memory usage of growfs on 512 byte sector size file systems,
but more importantly means the allocation invariants are the same for
cached and uncached buffers. Document these new invariants with a big
fat comment mostly stolen from a patch by Dave Chinner.
