Kirk McKusick cf60e8e4bf Several performance improvements for soft updates have been added:
1) Fastpath deletions. When a file is being deleted, check to see if it
   was so recently created that its inode has not yet been written to
   disk. If so, the delete can proceed to immediately free the inode.
2) Background writes: No file or block allocations can be done while the
   bitmap is being written to disk. To avoid these stalls, the bitmap is
   copied to another buffer which is written thus leaving the original
   available for futher allocations.
3) Link count tracking. Constantly track the difference in i_effnlink and
   i_nlink so that inodes that have had no change other than i_effnlink
   need not be written.
4) Identify buffers with rollback dependencies so that the buffer flushing
   daemon can choose to skip over them.
