A couple places use OCFS2_DEBUG_FS where they really mean
CONFIG_OCFS2_DEBUG_FS.

kmalloc() during a localalloc window move can trigger the mm to prune
the dcache which inturn can trigger the fs to delete an inode causing
it start a recursive transaction.
The fix also makes the change in kmalloc during localalloc shutdown
just to be safe.

Inode allocation is modified to look in other nodes allocators during
extreme out of space situations. We retry our own slot when space is freed
back to the global bitmap, or whenever we've allocated more than 1024 inodes
from another slot.

In inode stealing, we no longer restrict the allocation to
happen in the local node. So it is neccessary for us to add
a new member in ocfs2_alloc_context to indicate which slot
we are using for allocation. We also modify the process of
local alloc so that this member can be used there also.

Commit 2fbe8d1ebe disabled localalloc
for local mounts. This caused issues as ocfs2 uses localalloc to
provide write locality. This patch enables localalloc for local mounts.

Local alloc is a performance optimization in ocfs2 in which a node
takes a window of bits from the global bitmap and then uses that for
all small local allocations. This window size is fixed to 8MB currently.
This patch allows users to specify the window size in MB including
disabling it by passing in 0. If the number specified is too large,
the fs will use the default value of 8MB.

Call this the "inode_lock" now, since it covers both data and meta data.

Enable expensive bitmap scanning only if DEBUG option is enabled.
The bitmap scanning quite loads the CPU and on my machine the write
throughput of dd if=/dev/zero of=/ocfs2/file bs=1M count=500 conv=sync
improves from 37 MB/s to 45.4 MB/s in local mode...

The fs was not unlocking the local alloc inode mutex in the code path in
which it failed to find a window of free bits in the global bitmap.

The ocfs2 write code loops through a page much like the block code, except
that ocfs2 allocation units can be any size, including larger than page
size. Typically it's equal to or larger than page size - most kernels run 4k
pages, the minimum ocfs2 allocation (cluster) size.
Some changes introduced during 2.6.23 changed the way writes to pages are
handled, and inadvertantly broke support for > 4k page size. Instead of just
writing one cluster at a time, we now handle the whole page in one pass.
This means that multiple (small) seperate allocations might happen in the
same pass. The allocation code howver typically optimizes by getting the
maximum which was reserved. This triggered a BUG_ON in the extend code where
it'd ask for a single bit (for one part of a > 4k page) and get back more
than it asked for.
Fix this by providing a variant of the high level allocation function which
allows the caller to specify a maximum. The traditional function remains and
just calls the new one with a maximum determined from the initial
reservation.

We weren't cleaning up our inode reference on error in
ocfs2_reserve_local_alloc_bits(). Add a check for error return and iput() if
need be. Move the code to set the alloc context inode info to the end of the
function so we don't have any possibility of passing back a bad pointer.

All kcalloc() calls of the form "kcalloc(1,...)" are converted to the
equivalent kzalloc() calls, and a few kcalloc() calls with the incorrect
ordering of the first two arguments are fixed.

This is mostly a search and replace as ocfs2_journal_handle is now no more
than a container for a handle_t pointer.
ocfs2_commit_trans() becomes very straight forward, and we remove some out
of date comments / code.

All callers either pass in NULL directly, or a local variable that is
already set to NULL.
The internals of ocfs2_start_trans() get a nice cleanup as a result.

Instead we record our state on the allocation context structure which all
callers already know about and lifetime correctly. This means the
reservation functions don't need a handle passed in any more, and we can
also take it off the alloc context.

Callers can set h_sync directly on the handle_t, whether a transaction has
been started or not can be determined via the existence of the handle_t on
the struct ocfs2_journal_handle.

Record the most recently used allocation group on the allocation context, so
that subsequent allocations can attempt to optimize for contiguousness.
Local alloc especially should benefit from this as the current chain search
tends to let it spew across the disk.

This patch converts the inode semaphore to a mutex. I have tested it on
XFS and compiled as much as one can consider on an ia64. Anyway your
luck with it might be different.
