    xfs: Inode create log items · 3ebe7d2d
    Dave Chinner authored
    Introduce the inode create log item type for logical inode create logging.
    Instead of logging the changes in buffers, pass the range to be
    initialised through the log by a new transaction type.  This reduces
    the amount of log space required to record initialisation during
    allocation from about 128 bytes per inode to a small fixed amount
    per inode extent to be initialised.
    
    This requires a new log item type to track it through the log
    and the AIL. This is a relatively simple item - most callbacks are
    noops as this item has the same life cycle as the transaction.
