xfs: Introduce an ordered buffer item
If we have a buffer that we have modified but we do not wish to physically log in a transaction (e.g. we've logged a logical change), we still need to ensure that transactional integrity is maintained. Hence we must not move the tail of the log past the transaction that the buffer is associated with before the buffer is written to disk. This means these special buffers still need to be included in the transaction and added to the AIL just like a normal buffer, but we do not want the modifications to the buffer written into the transaction. IOWs, what we want is an "ordered buffer" that maintains the same transactional life cycle as a physically logged buffer, just without the transcribing of the modifications to the log. Hence we need to flag the buffer as an "ordered buffer" to avoid including it in vector size calculations or formatting during the transaction. Once the transaction is committed, the buffer appears for all intents to be the same as a physically logged buffer as it transitions through the log and AIL. Relogging will also work just fine for such an ordered buffer - the logical transaction will be replayed before the subsequent modifications that relog the buffer, so everything will be reconstructed correctly by recovery.
