ns_lock over the entirety of the commit we need to have a way to block new people from creating a new transaction while we're doing our work. So we set no_trans_join and in join_transaction we test to see if that is set, and if it is we do a wait_on_commit. 6) Make the transaction use count atomic so we don't need to take locks to modify it when we're dropping references. 7) Add a commit_lock to the transaction to make sure multiple people trying to commit the same transaction don't race and commit at the same time. 8) Make open_ioctl_trans an atomic so we don't have to take any locks for ioctl trans. I have tested this with xfstests, but obviously it is a pretty hairy change so lots of testing is greatly appreciated. Thanks, Signed-off-by: Josef Bacik 2N
