xfs: don't free post-EOF blocks on read close
When we have a workload that does open/read/close in parallel with other
allocation, the file becomes rapidly fragmented. This is due to close()
calling xfs_file_release() and removing the speculative preallocation
beyond EOF.
Add a check for a writable context to xfs_file_release to skip the
post-EOF block freeing (an the similarly pointless flushing on truncate
down).
Before:
Test 1: sync write fragmentation counts
/mnt/scratch/file.0: 919
/mnt/scratch/file.1: 916
/mnt/scratch/file.2: 919
/mnt/scratch/file.3: 920
/mnt/scratch/file.4: 920
/mnt/scratch/file.5: 921
/mnt/scratch/file.6: 916
/mnt/scratch/file.7: 918
After:
Test 1: sync write fragmentation counts
/mnt/scratch/file.0: 24
/mnt/scratch/file.1: 24
/mnt/scratch/file.2: 11
/mnt/scratch/file.3: 24
/mnt/scratch/file.4: 3
/mnt/scratch/file.5: 24
/mnt/scratch/file.6: 24
/mnt/scratch/file.7: 23
