xfs: introduce new locks for the log grant ticket wait queues
The log grant ticket wait queues are currently protected by the log grant lock. However, the queues are functionally independent from each other, and operations on them only require serialisation against other queue operations now that all of the other log variables they use are atomic values. Hence, we can make them independent of the grant lock by introducing new locks just to protect the lists operations. because the lists are independent, we can use a lock per list and ensure that reserve and write head queuing do not contend. To ensure forced shutdowns work correctly in conjunction with the new fast paths, ensure that we check whether the log has been shut down in the grant functions once we hold the relevant spin locks but before we go to sleep. This is needed to co-ordinate correctly with the wakeups that are issued on the ticket queues so we don't leave any processes sleeping on the queues during a shutdown.
