The method to allocate and free FIB's in the present code utilizes spinlocks. Multiple IO's have to wait on the spinlock to acquire or free fibs creating a performance bottleneck. An alternative solution would be to use block layer tags to keep track of the fibs allocated and freed. To this end aac_fib_alloc_tag was created to utilize the blk layer tags to plug into the Fib pool.These functions are used exclusively in the IO path. 8 fibs are reserved for the use of AIF management software and utilize the previous spinlock based implementations.
