Avoid an extra atomic operation in the non-trylock case by only
doing a trylock if the XBF_TRYLOCK flag is set. This follows the
pattern in the IO path with NOWAIT semantics where the
"trylock-fail-lock" path showed 5-10% reduced throughput compared to
just using single lock call when not under NOWAIT conditions. So
make that same change here, too.
See commit 942491c9e6 ("xfs: fix AIM7 regression") for details.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
