xfs: reduce the number of AIL push wakeups
The xfaild often tries to rest to wait for congestion to pass of for
IO to complete, but is regularly woken in tail-pushing situations.
In severe cases, the xfsaild is getting woken tens of thousands of
times a second. Reduce the number needless wakeups by only waking
the xfsaild if the new target is larger than the old one. Further
make short sleeps uninterruptible as they occur when the xfsaild has
decided it needs to back off to allow some IO to complete and being
woken early is counter-productive.
