Hans Holmberg f3e2e53823 xfs: add inode to zone caching for data placement
Placing data from the same file in the same zone is a great heuristic
for reducing write amplification and we do this already - but only
for sequential writes.

To support placing data in the same way for random writes, reuse the
xfs mru cache to map inodes to open zones on first write. If a mapping
is present, use the open zone for data placement for this file until
the zone is full.

README

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 reStructuredText 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.
