From: Nicholas Kazlauskas <nicholas.kazlauskas@xxxxxxx> commit 43d10d30df156f7834fa91aecb69614fefc8bb0a upstream. [Why] By passing through the dm_determine_update_type_for_commit for atomic commits that can be done asynchronously we are incurring a performance penalty by locking access to the global private object and holding that access until the end of the programming sequence. This is also allocating a new large dc_state on every access in addition to retaining all the references on each stream and plane until the end of the programming sequence. [How] Shift the determination for async update before validation. Return early if it's going to be an async update.
