Hi all,

This is just a couple small gc tweaks associated with deferred
inactivation. Patch 1 is intended to be a fix for a race described in
the commit log description. I think it's equivalent to the intent of the
current code, but could be mistaken. Patch 2 is intended to be a
usability improvement around freeze vs. inode reclaim given the new
behavior of the latter wrt deferred inactivation. Full disclosure: the
idea of patch 2 has previously shown to be contentious. My view is this
is a simple and incremental improvement over current upstream behavior,
so I'm posting it regardless. Feel free to drop it in favor of existing
behavior or something else.

Brian

  xfs: flush inodegc workqueue tasks before cancel
  xfs: run blockgc on freeze to avoid iget stalls after reclaim
