Seems reasonable, but is this going to be in addition to a higher level
change along the lines of Dave's suggestion to minimize parallel
allocated I/O completion transactions on the same inode? If so, it might
be worth doing that first with a commit log description that documents
the deadlock problem and fix and then include this one as a separate
update to avoid blocking regrants in the common remap case.
Also, it would be helpful to include the analysis that goes into
calculating the logcount in the commit log as well (I think you
mentioned deferred agfl frees adding another roll or two to the
originally expected roll count, but it's not immediately clear to me
where the original value came from..).
