single kernel-wide soft update lock can be replaced with a
per-filesystem soft-updates lock. This per-filesystem lock will
allow each filesystem to have its own soft-updates flushing thread
rather than being limited to a single soft-updates flushing thread
for the entire kernel.
Move soft update variables out of the ufsmount structure and into
their own mount_softdeps structure referenced by ufsmount field
um_softdep. Eventually the per-filesystem lock will be in this
structure. For now there is simply a pointer to the kernel-wide
soft updates lock.
Change all instances of ACQUIRE_LOCK and FREE_LOCK to pass the lock
pointer in the mount_softdeps structure instead of a pointer to the
kernel-wide soft-updates lock.
Replace the five hash tables used by soft updates with per-filesystem
copies of these tables allocated in the mount_softdeps structure.
Several functions that flush dependencies when too many are allocated
in the kernel used to operate across all filesystems. They are now
parameterized to flush dependencies from a specified filesystem.
For now, we stick with the round-robin flushing strategy when the
kernel as a whole has too many dependencies allocated.
While there are many lines of changes, there should be no functional
change in the operation of soft updates.
