This improves copygc pipelining across multiple buckets: we now track each in flight bucket we're evacuating, with separate moving_contexts. This means that whereas previously we had to wait for outstanding moves to complete to ensure we didn't try to evacuate the same bucket twice, we can now just check buckets we want to evacuate against the pending list. This also mean we can run the verify_bucket_evacuated() check without killing pipelining - meaning it can now always be enabled, not just on debug builds. This is going to be important for the upcoming erasure coding work, where moving IOs that are being erasure coded will now skip the initial replication step; instead the IOs will wait on the stripe to complete.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
