xfs: bugfixes for 3.7-rc5
- fix for large transactions spanning multiple iclog buffers
- zero the allocation_args structure on the stack before using it
to determine whether to use a worker for allocation
- move allocation stack switch to xfs_bmapi_allocate in order
to prevent deadlock on AGF buffers
- growfs no longer reads in garbage for new secondary superblocks
- silence a build warning
- ensure that invalid buffers never get written to disk while on
free list
- don't vmap inode cluster buffers during free
- fix buffer shutdown reference count mismatch
- fix reading of wrapped log data
xfs: fix reading of wrapped log data
Commit 4439647 ("xfs: reset buffer pointers before freeing them") in
3.0-rc1 introduced a regression when recovering log buffers that
wrapped around the end of log. The second part of the log buffer at
the start of the physical log was being read into the header buffer
rather than the data buffer, and hence recovery was seeing garbage
in the data buffer when it got to the region of the log buffer that
was incorrectly read.
