xfs: detect and trim torn writes during log recovery

Browse Source 
Certain types of storage, such as persistent memory, do not provide
sector atomicity for writes. This means that if a crash occurs while XFS
is writing log records, only part of those records might make it to the
storage. This is problematic because log recovery uses the cycle value
packed at the top of each log block to locate the head/tail of the log.
This can lead to CRC verification failures during log recovery and an
unmountable fs for a filesystem that is otherwise consistent.

Update log recovery to incorporate log record CRC verification as part
of the head/tail discovery process. Once the head is located via the
traditional algorithm, run a CRC-only pass over the records up to the
head of the log. If CRC verification fails, assume that the records are
torn as a matter of policy and trim the head block back to the start of
the first bad record.
