xfs: release bli from transaction properly on fs shutdown
If a filesystem shutdown occurs with a buffer log item in the CIL and a log force occurs, the ->iop_unpin() handler is generally expected to tear down the bli properly. This entails freeing the bli memory and releasing the associated hold on the buffer so it can be released and the filesystem unmounted. If this sequence occurs while ->bli_refcount is elevated (i.e., another transaction is open and attempting to modify the buffer), however, ->iop_unpin() may not be responsible for releasing the bli. Instead, the transaction may release the final ->bli_refcount reference and thus xfs_trans_brelse() is responsible for tearing down the bli. While xfs_trans_brelse() does drop the reference count, it only attempts to release the bli if it is clean (i.e., not in the CIL/AIL). If the filesystem is shutdown and the bli is sitting dirty in the CIL as noted above, this ends up skipping the last opportunity to release the bli. In turn, this leaves the hold on the buffer and causes an unmount hang. This can be reproduced by running generic/388 in repetition. Update xfs_trans_brelse() to handle this shutdown corner case correctly. If the final bli reference is dropped and the filesystem is shutdown, remove the bli from the AIL (if necessary) and release the bli to drop the buffer hold and ensure an unmount does not hang.
