From: Trond Myklebust <trond.myklebust@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> When flushing out the unstable file writes as part of a COMMIT call, try to perform most of of the data writes and waits outside the semaphore. This means that if the client is sending the COMMIT as part of a memory reclaim operation, then it can continue performing I/O, with contention for the lock occurring only once the data sync is finished.
