the first person to take issue with it.
You can find a full version history for XFS back to 2.6.12 or so here:

If you're interested in going older than that look here:
http://oss.sgi.com/cgi-bin/gitweb.cgi?p=archive/xfs-import.git;a=summary
The function you'll most likely want to track is xfs_iomap_write_delay, which
calls xfs_iomap_eof_want_preallocate, both of which are in fs/xfs/xfs_iomap.c.
Recently Brian Foster added a scanner to remove the speculative block
reservations on a timer which may give you some relief. See
xfs_queue_eofblocks in fs/xfs/xfs_icache.c

Ben
