Inodes that are held across deferred operations are explicitly joined to the dfops structure to ensure appropriate relogging. While inodes are currently joined explicitly, we can detect the conditions that require relogging at dfops finish time by inspecting the transaction item list for inodes with ili_lock_flags == 0. Replace the xfs_defer_ijoin() infrastructure with such detection and automatic relogging of held inodes. This eliminates the need for the per-dfops inode list, replaced by an on-stack variant in xfs_defer_trans_roll().

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
