direct-io: Implement generic deferred AIO completions
Add support to the core direct-io code to defer AIO completions to user context using a workqueue. This replaces opencoded and less efficient code in XFS and ext4 (we save a memory allocation for each direct IO) and will be needed to properly support O_(D)SYNC for AIO. The communication between the filesystem and the direct I/O code requires a new buffer head flag, which is a bit ugly but not avoidable until the direct I/O code stops abusing the buffer_head structure for communicating with the filesystems. Currently this creates a per-superblock unbound workqueue for these completions, which is taken from an earlier patch by Jan Kara. I'm not really convinced about this use and would prefer a "normal" global workqueue with a high concurrency limit, but this needs further discussion. JK: Fixed ext4 part, dynamic allocation of the workqueue. Signed-off-by: Christoph Hellwig <hch@lst.de> Signed-off-by: Jan Kara <jack@suse.cz> Signed-off-by: Al Viro <viro@zeniv.linux.org.uk>
