[PATCH 32/34] xfs: introduce new locks for the log grant ticket wait queues

[Dave Chinner <david@fromorbit.com>]

From: Dave Chinner <dchinner@redhat.com>

The log grant ticket wait queues are currently protected by the log
grant lock.  However, the queues are functionally independent from
each other, and operations on them only require serialisation
against other queue operations now that all of the other log
variables they use are atomic values.

Hence, we can make them independent of the grant lock by introducing
new locks just to protect the lists operations. because the lists
are independent, we can use a lock per list and ensure that reserve
and write head queuing do not contend.

To ensure forced shutdowns work correctly in conjunction with the
new fast paths, ensure that we check whether the log has been shut
down in the grant functions once we hold the relevant spin locks but
before we go to sleep. This is needed to co-ordinate correctly with
the wakeups that are issued on the ticket queues so we don't leave
any processes sleeping on the queues during a shutdown.
