gfs2: Clean up gfs2_is_{ordered,writeback}

The gfs2_is_ordered and gfs2_is_writeback checks are weird in that they
implicitly check for !gfs2_is_jdata. This makes understanding how to
use those functions correctly a challenge. Clean this up by making
gfs2_is_ordered and gfs2_is_writeback take a super block instead of an
inode and by removing the implicit !gfs2_is_jdata checks. Update the
callers accordingly.

No performance impact is expected as the overhead is marginal. The

gfs2: forcibly flush ail to relieve memory pressure

On systems with low memory, it is possible for gfs2 to infinitely
loop in balance_dirty_pages() under heavy IO (creating sparse files).

balance_dirty_pages() attempts to write out the dirty pages via
gfs2_writepages() but none are found because these dirty pages are
being used by the journaling code in the ail. Normally, the journal
has an upper threshold which when hit triggers an automatic flush
of the ail. But this threshold can be higher than the number of
allowable dirty pages and result in the ail never being flushed.

This patch forces an ail flush when gfs2_writepages() fails to write
anything. This is a good indication that the ail might be holding
some dirty pages.

which would've made it uptodate

b) zeroing the tail in pagecache is wrong. kill -9 at the right time
while writing unmodified file contents to the same file should _not_
leave us in a situation when read() from the file will be reporting
it full of zeroes. Especially since that effect will be transient -
at some later point the page will be evicted and then we'll be back
to the real file contents.

gfs2: writeout truncated pages

When gfs2 attempts to write a page to a file that is being truncated,
and notices that the page is completely outside of the file size, it
tries to invalidate it. However, this may require a transaction for
journaled data files to revoke any buffers from the page on the active
items list. Unfortunately, this can happen inside a log flush, where a
transaction cannot be started. Also, gfs2 may need to be able to remove
the buffer from the ail1 list before it can finish the log flush.

To deal with this, when writing a page of a file with data journalling
enabled gfs2 now skips the check to see if the write is outside the file
size, and simply writes it anyway. This situation can only occur when
the truncate code still has the file locked exclusively, and hasn't
marked this block as free in the metadata (which happens later in
truc_dealloc). After gfs2 writes this page out, the truncation code
will shortly invalidate it and write out any revokes if necessary.

To do this, gfs2 now implements its own version of block_write_full_page
without the check, and calls the newly exported __block_write_full_page.
It also no longer calls gfs2_writepage_common from gfs2_jdata_writepage.
