This patchset fixes a handful of problems relating to how we get and release incore inodes in the online scrub code. The first patch fixes how we handle DONTCACHE -- our reasons for setting (or clearing it) depend entirely on the runtime environment at irele time. Hence we can refactor iget and irele to use our own wrappers that set that context appropriately. The second patch fixes a race between the iget call in the inode core scrubber and other writer threads that are allocating or freeing inodes in the same AG by changing the behavior of xchk_iget (and the inode core scrub setup function) to return either an incore inode or the AGI buffer so that we can be sure that the inode cannot disappear on us. The final patch elides MMAPLOCK from scrub paths when possible. It did not fit anywhere else. Signed-off-by: Darrick J.

README
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.
