Running the preempt tiering tests with a lower than normal journal reclaim delay turned up a shutdown hang - a lost wakeup, caused because flushing a journal pin (e.g. key cache/write buffer) can generate a new journal pin. The "simple" fix of adding the correct wakeup didn't work because of ordering issues; if we flush btree node pins too aggressively before other pins have completed, we end up spinning where each flush iteration generates new work. So to fix this correctly: - The list of flushed journal pins is now broken out by type, so that we can wait for key cache/write buffer pin flushing to complete before flushing dirty btree nodes - A new closure_waitlist is added for bch2_journal_flush_pins; this one is only used under or when we're taking the journal lock, so it's pretty cheap to add rigorously correct wakeups to journal_pin_set() and journal_pin_drop(). Additionally, bch2_journal_seq_pins_to_text() is moved to journal_reclaim.c, where it belongs, along with a bit of other small renaming and refactoring. Besides fixing the hang, the better ordering between key cache/write buffer flushing and btree node flushing should help or fix the "unmount taking excessively long" a few users have been noticing.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
