Our zfs backed Lustre MDT had soft lockups while under heavy metadata
workloads while handling transaction callbacks from osd_zfs.
The problem is zfs is not taking advantage of the fast path in
Lustre's trans callback handling, where Lustre will skip the calls
to ptlrpc_commit_replies() when it already saw a higher transaction
number.
This patch corrects this, it also has a positive impact on metadata
performance on Lustre with osd_zfs, plus some cleanup in the headers.
A similar issue for ext4/ldiskfs is described on:
