Btrfs: fix a bug in checking whether a inode is already in log
This is based on Josef's "Btrfs: turbo charge fsync". The current btrfs checks if an inode is in log by comparing root's last_log_commit to inode's last_sub_trans[2]. But the problem is that this root->last_log_commit is shared among inodes. Say we have N inodes to be logged, after the first inode, root's last_log_commit is updated and the N-1 remained files will be skipped. This fixes the bug by keeping a local copy of root's last_log_commit inside each inode and this local copy will be maintained itself. [1]: we regard each log transaction as a subset of btrfs's transaction, i.e. sub_trans Signed-off-by: Liu Bo <bo.li.liu@oracle.com>
