[PATCH 3/4] xfs: make xfs_inode_set_eofblocks_tag cheaper for the common case
Christoph Hellwig

Sun Aug 21 16:51:12 CDT 2016
For long growing file writes we will usually already have the eofblocks
tag set when adding more speculative preallocations. Add a flag in the
inode to allow us to skip the the fairly expensive AG-wide spinlocks
and multiple radix tree operations in that case.
