xfs: lockless buffer lookup

xfs: lockless buffer lookup

Now that we have a standalone fast path for buffer lookup, we can
easily convert it to use rcu lookups. When we continually hammer the
buffer cache with trylock lookups, we end up with a huge amount of
lock contention on the per-ag buffer hash locks:

   - 92.67% xfs_inodegc_worker

                                   71.86% __pv_queued_spin_lock_slowpath
                           - 8.74% xfs_buf_rele
                              - 7.88% _raw_spin_lock
                                 - 7.88% do_raw_spin_lock
                                      7.63% __pv_queued_spin_lock_slowpath
                           - 1.70% xfs_buf_trylock
                              - 1.68% down_trylock
                                 - 1.41% _raw_spin_lock_irqsave
                                    - 1.39% do_raw_spin_lock
                                         __pv_queued_spin_lock_slowpath
                           - 0.76% _raw_spin_unlock
                                0.75% do_raw_spin_unlock

This is basically hammering the pag->pag_buf_lock from lots of CPUs
doing trylocks at the same time. Most of the buffer trylock
operations ultimately fail after we've done the lookup, so we're
really hammering the buf hash lock whilst making no progress.

We can also see significant spinlock traffic on the same lock just
under normal operation when lots of tasks are accessing metadata
from the same AG, so let's avoid all this by converting the lookup
fast path to leverages the rhashtable's ability to do rcu protected
lookups.

We avoid races with the buffer release path by using
atomic_inc_not_zero() on the buffer hold count. Any buffer that is
in the LRU will have a non-zero count, thereby allowing the lockless
fast path to be taken in most cache hit situations. If the buffer
hold count is zero, then it is likely going through the release path
so in that case we fall back to the existing lookup miss slow path.

The slow path will then do an atomic lookup and insert under the
buffer hash lock and hence serialise correctly against buffer
release freeing the buffer.

The use of rcu protected lookups means that buffer handles now need
to be freed by RCU callbacks (same as inodes). We still free the
buffer pages before the RCU callback - we won't be trying to access
them at all on a buffer that has zero references - but we need the
buffer handle itself to be present for the entire rcu protected read
side to detect a zero hold count correctly.
