xfs: one-shot cached buffers
For the new growfs work, we want to ensure that we serialise secondary superblock updates with other operations (e.g. scrub) correctly, but we don't want to cache the buffers for long term reuse. We need cached buffers for serialisation, however. To solve this, introduce a "oneshot" buffer which will be marshalled through the cache but then released once the last current reference goes away. If the buffer is already cached, then we ignore the "one-shot" behaviour and leave the buffer in the state it was prior to the one-shot command being run. This means we don't perturb either the working set or existing cached buffer state by a one-shot operation. Signed-Off-By: Dave Chinner <dchinner@redhat.com> Reviewed-by: Darrick J.
