GFS2: Alter point of entry to glock lru list for glocks with an address_space
Rather than allowing the glocks to be scheduled for possible reclaim as soon as they have exited the journal, this patch delays their entry to the list until the glocks in question are no longer in use. This means that we will rely on the vm for writeback of all dirty data and metadata from now on. When glocks are added to the lru list they should be freeable much faster since all the I/O required to free them should have already been completed. This should lead to much better I/O patterns under low memory conditions. Signed-off-by: Steven Whitehouse <swhiteho@redhat.com>
