This is the 2/3 patch to enable tree-log on ZONED mode.
Since we can start more than one log transactions per subvolume
simultaneously, nodes from multiple transactions can be allocated
interleaved. Such mixed allocation results in non-sequential writes at the
time of log transaction commit. The nodes of the global log root tree
(fs_info->log_root_tree), also have the same mixed allocation problem.
This patch serializes log transactions by waiting for a committing
transaction when someone tries to start a new transaction, to avoid the
mixed allocation problem. We must also wait for running log transactions
from another subvolume, but there is no easy way to detect which subvolume
root is running a log transaction. So, this patch forbids starting a new
log transaction when other subvolumes already allocated the global log root
tree.
