xfs: split metadata and log buffer completion to separate workqueues
XFS traditionally sends all buffer I/O completion work to a single
workqueue. This includes metadata buffer completion and log buffer
completion. The log buffer completion requires a high priority queue to
prevent stalls due to log forces getting stuck behind other queued work.
Rather than continue to prioritize all buffer I/O completion due to the
needs of log completion, split log buffer completion off to
m_log_workqueue and move the high priority flag from m_buf_workqueue to
m_log_workqueue.
Add a b_ioend_wq wq pointer to xfs_buf to allow completion workqueue
customization on a per-buffer basis. Initialize b_ioend_wq to
m_buf_workqueue by default in the generic buffer I/O submission path.
Finally, override the default wq with the high priority m_log_workqueue
in the log buffer I/O submission path.
