9b2e5a234c xfs: create traced helper to get extra perag references
There are a few places in the XFS codebase where a caller has either an
active or a passive reference to a perag structure and wants to give
a passive reference to some other piece of code.  Btree cursor creation
and inode walks are good examples of this.  Replace the open-coded logic
with a helper to do this.

The new function adds a few safeguards -- it checks that there's at
least one reference to the perag structure passed in, and it records the
refcount bump in the ftrace information.  This makes it much easier to
debug perag refcounting problems.

784eb7d8dd xfs: add in-memory iunlink log item
Now that we have a clean operation to update the di_next_unlinked
field of inode cluster buffers, we can easily defer this operation
to transaction commit time so we can order the inode cluster buffer
locking consistently.

To do this, we introduce a new in-memory log item to track the
unlinked list item modification that we are going to make. This
follows the same observations as the in-memory double linked list
used to track unlinked inodes in that the inodes on the list are
pinned in memory and cannot go away, and hence we can simply
reference them for the duration of the transaction without needing
to take active references or pin them or look them up.

This allows us to pass the xfs_inode to the transaction commit code
along with the modification to be made, and then order the logged
modifications via the ->iop_sort and ->iop_precommit operations
for the new log item type. As this is an in-memory log item, it
doesn't have formatting, CIL or AIL operational hooks - it exists
purely to run the inode unlink modifications and is then removed
from the transaction item list and freed once the precommit
operation has run.
