da353b0d64 [XFS] Radix tree based inode caching
One of the perpetual scaling problems XFS has is indexing it's incore
inodes. We currently uses hashes and the default hash sizes chosen can
only ever be a tradeoff between memory consumption and the maximum
realistic size of the cache.

As a result, anyone who has millions of inodes cached on a filesystem
needs to tunes the size of the cache via the ihashsize mount option to
allow decent scalability with inode cache operations.

A further problem is the separate inode cluster hash, whose size is based
on the ihashsize but is smaller, and so under certain conditions (sparse
cluster cache population) this can become a limitation long before the
inode hash is causing issues.

The following patchset removes the inode hash and cluster hash and
replaces them with radix trees to avoid the scalability limitations of the
hashes. It also reduces the size of the inodes by 3 pointers....

22d91f65d5 [XFS] Add lock annotations to xfs_trans_update_ail and
xfs_trans_delete_ail

xfs_trans_update_ail and xfs_trans_delete_ail get called with the AIL lock
held, and release it. Add lock annotations to these two functions so that
sparse can check callers for lock pairing, and so that sparse will not
complain about these functions since they intentionally use locks in this
manner.

f6c2d1fa63 [XFS] Remove version 1 directory code. Never functioned on Linux, just
pure bloat.

7d04a335b6 [XFS] Shutdown the filesystem if all device paths have gone. Made
shutdown vop flags consistent with sync vop flags declarations too.

6f948fbd44 [XFS] Need to unlock the AIL before calling xfs_force_shutdown() because
when it goes to force out the log, and get the tail lsn, it will want to
get the AIL lock.

Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history,
even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git
archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about
3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early
git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good
infrastructure for it.

Let it rip!
