Steven Whitehouse b004157ab5 [GFS2] Fix journal flush problem
This fixes a bug which resulted in poor performance due to flushing
the journal too often. The code path in question was via the inode_go_sync()
function in glops.c. The solution is not to flush the journal immediately
when inodes are ejected from memory, but batch up the work for glockd to
deal with later on. This means that glocks may now live on beyond the end of
the lifetime of their inodes (but not very much longer in the normal case).

Also fixed in this patch is a bug (which was hidden by the bug mentioned above) in
calculation of the number of free journal blocks.

The gfs2_logd process has been altered to be more responsive to the journal
filling up. We now wake it up when the number of uncommitted journal blocks
has reached the threshold level rather than trying to flush directly at the
end of each transaction. This again means doing fewer, but larger, log
flushes in general.
