[PATCH 0/3] Decouple busy_extents from cil context

[cem@kernel.org]

From: Carlos Maiolino <cem@kernel.org>

This series belongs to some work I am doing on AIL aiming to improve its
writeback performance.

I need the cil context to be treated as a single unit during AIL
processing, and having busy_extents associated with it gets in the way.

This has passed the same tests I run during patch integration without
regressions.

Instead of keeping rebasing it on top of newer versions, I'd appreciate
I could get reviews and upstream this part now, to reduce the amount of
changes I need to rebase.

I should get the next part ready soon once I fix a few issues on it.

Carlos Maiolino (3):
  xfs: add a couple helpers to alloc/free xfs_busy_extents
  xfs: convert busy_extents list to a pointer within cil context
  xfs: remove owner field from xfs_extent_busy
