I'm unfamiliar with the internal format of CIL sequence numbers. Do
they have the same cycle:offset segmented structure as LSNs do? Or are
they a simple linear integer that increases as we checkpoint committed
items?
Looking through the current code, I see a couple of places where we
initialize them to 1, and I also see that when we create a new cil
context we set its sequence to one more than the context that it will
replace.
I also see a bunch of comparisons of cil context sequence numbers that
use standard integer operators, but then I also see one instance of:
if (XFS_LSN_CMP(lip->li_seq, ctx->sequence) != 0)
return false;
return true
in xfs_log_item_in_current_chkpt. AFAICT this could be replaced with a
simple:
return lip->li_seq == ctx->sequence;
But the fact that we're using LSN_CMP in /one/ place sticks out like a
sore thumb to me, and now I'm confused. Is my understanding incorrect,
or is this operator use incorrect?

Weird, I didn't know that you could use return like this -- both
_release and _committing return void.
