Julian Sun d932fb292f ext4: increase IO priority of fastcommit
[ Upstream commit 46e75c56df ]

The following code paths may result in high latency or even task hangs:
   1. fastcommit io is throttled by wbt.
   2. jbd2_fc_wait_bufs() might wait for a long time while
JBD2_FAST_COMMIT_ONGOING is set in journal->flags, and then
jbd2_journal_commit_transaction() waits for the
JBD2_FAST_COMMIT_ONGOING bit for a long time while holding the write
lock of j_state_lock.
   3. start_this_handle() waits for read lock of j_state_lock which
results in high latency or task hang.

Given the fact that ext4_fc_commit() already modifies the current
process' IO priority to match that of the jbd2 thread, it should be
reasonable to match jbd2's IO submission flags as well.

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.
