Implement CRCs for the log buffers. We re-use a field in struct xlog_rec_header that was used for a weak checksum of the log buffer payload in debug builds before. The new checksumming uses the crc32c checksum we will use elsewhere in XFS, and also protects the record header and addition cycle data. Due to this there are some interesting changes in xlog_sync, as we need to do the cycle wrapping for the split buffer case much earlier, as we would touch the buffer after generating the checksum otherwise. The CRC calculation is always enabled, even for non-CRC filesystems, as adding this CRC does not change the log format. On non-CRC filesystems, only issue an alert if a CRC mismatch is found and allow recovery to continue - this will act as an indicator that log recovery problems are a result of log corruption. On CRC enabled filesystems, however, log recovery will fail. Note that existing debug kernels will write a simple checksum value to the log, so the first time this is run on a filesystem taht was last used on a debug kernel it will through CRC mismatch warning errors. These can be ignored. Initially based on a patch from Dave Chinner, then modified significantly by Christoph Hellwig. Modified again by Dave Chinner to get to this version.
