Christoph Hellwig a8c861f401 xfs: avoid busy loops in GCD
When GCD has no new work to handle, but read, write or reset commands
are outstanding, it currently busy loops, which is a bit suboptimal,
and can lead to softlockup warnings in case of stuck commands.

Change the code so that the task state is only set to running when work
is performed, which looks a bit tricky due to the design of the
reading/writing/resetting lists that contain both in-flight and finished
commands.

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 reStructuredText 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.
