jbd2: refine waiting for shadow buffers
Currently when we add a buffer to a transaction, we wait until the buffer is removed from BJ_Shadow list (so that we prevent any changes to the buffer that is just written to the journal). This can take unnecessarily long as a lot happens between the time the buffer is submitted to the journal and the time when we remove the buffer from BJ_Shadow list. (e.g. We wait for all data buffers in the transaction, we issue a cache flush, etc.) Also this creates a dependency of do_get_write_access() on transaction commit (namely waiting for data IO to complete) which we want to avoid when implementing transaction reservation. So we modify commit code to set new BH_Shadow flag when temporary shadowing buffer is created and we clear that flag once IO on that buffer is complete. This allows do_get_write_access() to wait only for BH_Shadow bit and thus removes the dependency on data IO completion.
