Bugzilla: 1349175

- Retain the buffer lru helpers as rhel7 does not include built-in
  list_lru infrastructure.
- Some b_lock bits dropped as they were introduced by a previous
  selective backport.
- Backport use of dispose list from upstream list_lru-based
  xfs_wait_buftarg[_rele]() to downstream variant.

    xfs: rework buffer dispose list tracking

    In converting the buffer lru lists to use the generic code, the locking
    for marking the buffers as on the dispose list was lost.  This results in
    confusion in LRU buffer tracking and acocunting, resulting in reference
    counts being mucked up and filesystem beig unmountable.

    To fix this, introduce an internal buffer spinlock to protect the state
    field that holds the dispose list information.  Because there is now
    locking needed around xfs_buf_lru_add/del, and they are used in exactly
    one place each two lines apart, get rid of the wrappers and code the logic
    directly in place.

    Further, the LRU emptying code used on unmount is less than optimal.
    Convert it to use a dispose list as per a normal shrinker walk, and repeat
    the walk that fills the dispose list until the LRU is empty.  Thi avoids
    needing to drop and regain the LRU lock for every item being freed, and
    allows the same logic as the shrinker isolate call to be used.  Simpler,
    easier to understand.
