[PATCH] fuse: wake one waiter per freed slot when raising max_background

[Baokun Li <libaokun@linux.alibaba.com>]

fuse_get_req() parks background allocations on fch->blocked_waitq via
wait_event_state_exclusive(), so each wakeup releases exactly one
waiter.  fuse_chan_max_background_set() clears fch->blocked when the
new limit exceeds num_background, but the accompanying wake_up()
releases a single waiter regardless of how many slots just became
available.  Raising max_background from 10 to 100 therefore admits one
request instead of ninety.

The remaining waiters are not permanently stranded — the "else if
(!fch->blocked)" branch in fuse_request_end() wakes one more per
completion — but that only helps while requests keep completing.
Consider a fixed pool of threads doing readahead or async direct I/O
with the quota exhausted: every thread is either in flight or parked,
and each completion wakes one waiter while freeing one slot, a net
change of zero.  num_background oscillates around the old limit and
the added quota is never taken up.

Waking one waiter per freed slot also preserves submission order:
once fch->blocked is clear, new callers of fuse_get_req() skip the
waitqueue entirely, overtaking waiters that parked before the limit
was raised.

Use wake_up_nr() with the number of slots that just became available.
Since the wakeup is guarded by !fch->blocked, num_background is
strictly below max_background, so the count is at least 1 and never
degenerates into wake_up_all().
