[XFS] On machines with more than 8 cpus, when running parallel I/O

threads, the incore superblock lock becomes the limiting factor for
buffered write throughput. Make the contended fields in the incore
superblock use per-cpu counters so that there is no global lock to limit
scalability.

+ * Per-cpu incore superblock counters
+ *
+ * Simple concept, difficult implementation
+ *
+ * Basically, replace the incore superblock counters with a distributed per cpu
+ * counter for contended fields (e.g.  free block count).
+ *
+ * Difficulties arise in that the incore sb is used for ENOSPC checking, and
+ * hence needs to be accurately read when we are running low on space. Hence
+ * there is a method to enable and disable the per-cpu counters based on how
+ * much "stuff" is available in them.
+ *
+ * Basically, a counter is enabled if there is enough free resource to justify
+ * running a per-cpu fast-path. If the per-cpu counter runs out (i.e. a local
+ * ENOSPC), then we disable the counters to synchronise all callers and
+ * re-distribute the available resources.
+ *
+ * If, once we redistributed the available resources, we still get a failure,
+ * we disable the per-cpu counter and go through the slow path.
+ *
+ * The slow path is the current xfs_mod_incore_sb() function.  This means that
+ * when we disable a per-cpu counter, we need to drain it's resources back to
+ * the global superblock. We do this after disabling the counter to prevent
+ * more threads from queueing up on the counter.
+ *
+ * Essentially, this means that we still need a lock in the fast path to enable
+ * synchronisation between the global counters and the per-cpu counters. This
+ * is not a problem because the lock will be local to a CPU almost all the time
+ * and have little contention except when we get to ENOSPC conditions.
+ *
+ * Basically, this lock becomes a barrier that enables us to lock out the fast
+ * path while we do things like enabling and disabling counters and
+ * synchronising the counters.
+ *
+ * Locking rules:
+ *
+ *      1. XFS_SB_LOCK() before picking up per-cpu locks
+ *      2. per-cpu locks always picked up via for_each_online_cpu() order
+ *      3. accurate counter sync requires XFS_SB_LOCK + per cpu locks
+ *      4. modifying per-cpu counters requires holding per-cpu lock
+ *      5. modifying global counters requires holding XFS_SB_LOCK
+ *      6. enabling or disabling a counter requires holding the XFS_SB_LOCK
+ *         and _none_ of the per-cpu locks.
+ *
+ * Disabled counters are only ever re-enabled by a balance operation
+ * that results in more free resources per CPU than a given threshold.
+ * To ensure counters don't remain disabled, they are rebalanced when
+ * the global resource goes above a higher threshold (i.e. some hysteresis
+ * is present to prevent thrashing).
