[PATCH 00/37] xfs: current 3.4 patch queue

Folks,

This is my current patch queue that I'm testing. It's sitting on top
of Jan Kara's freeze series, but otherwise it is based on an
unmodified 3.4-rc4 + oss-xfs/master tree.

First of all, this series picks up Christoph's xfsbufd removal
series (patches 1-10). I've fixed all the known problems and made
all the changes suggested by myself and others in review. It passes
106 just fine, too. ;)

The next series (patches 11-14) are bug fixes and features that I've
previously posted. I haven't been able to reproduce Ben's CIL commit
sequence assert failure from the async log flushing patch (patch
12/37), so whatever the cause of that problem is is still unknown.

[ Actually, as I wrote this I had a concurrent rm -rf just trip this
assert, so the problem is real and I've obviously got more work to
do on this one.... ]

Following that is the buffer cache cleanup series (patches 15-26).
That is all essentially unchanged, except for a couple of minor
fixes from review comments.

Next up is a fix for XFS_IOC_ALLOCSP, followed by a previously
posted but unreviewed series (patches 28-34) that cleans up some
includes, removes xfs_rw.[ch] and moves all the busy extent handling
out to it's own file. This is all to make it easier to merge code
with userspace.

Finally, 3 new patches that clean up an issue seen in buffer flag
handling, fixes a log mount failure oops, and a further buffer flag
cleanup by making the dominant behaviour the default and not needing
flags to be specified.
