In the previous patch, we added jump labels to the intent drain code so that regular filesystem operations need not pay the price of checking for someone (scrub) waiting on intents to drain from some part of the filesystem when that someone isn't running. However, I observed that xfs/285 now spends a lot more time pushing the AIL from the inode btree scrubber than it used to. This is because the inobt scrubber will try push the AIL to try to get logged inode cores written to the filesystem when it sees a weird discrepancy between the ondisk inode and the inobt records. This AIL push is triggered when the setup function sees TRY_HARDER is set; and the requisite EDEADLOCK return is initiated when the discrepancy is seen. The solution to this performance slow down is to use a different result code (ECHRNG) for scrub code to signal that it needs to wait for deferred intent work items to drain out of some part of the filesystem. When this happens, set a new scrub state flag (XCHK_NEED_DRAIN) so that setup functions will activate the jump label. Signed-off-by: Darrick J.

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 Restructured Text 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.
