2006-06-09	[XFS] In actual allocation of file system blocks and freeing extents, the	Yingping Lu	1	-0/+2
	transaction within each such operation may involve multiple locking of AGF buffer. While the freeing extent function has sorted the extents based on AGF number before entering into transaction, however, when the file system space is very limited, the allocation of space would try every AGF to get space allocated, this could potentially cause out-of-order locking, thus deadlock could happen. This fix mitigates the scarce space for allocation by setting aside a few blocks without reservation, and avoid deadlock by maintaining ascending order of AGF locking.

	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!
