Chandan Babu R 6e8bd39d72 xfs: Initialize xfs_alloc_arg->total correctly when allocating minlen extents
xfs/538 can cause the following call trace to be printed when executing on a
multi-block directory configuration,

 WARNING: CPU: 1 PID: 2578 at fs/xfs/libxfs/xfs_bmap.c:717 xfs_bmap_extents_to_btree+0x520/0x5d0

This occurs because xfs_bmap_exact_minlen_extent_alloc() initializes
xfs_alloc_arg->total to xfs_bmalloca->minlen. In the context of
xfs_bmap_exact_minlen_extent_alloc(), xfs_bmalloca->minlen has a value of 1
and hence the space allocator could choose an AG which has less than
xfs_bmalloca->total number of free blocks available. As the transaction
proceeds, one of the future space allocation requests could fail due to
non-availability of free blocks in the AG that was originally chosen.

This commit fixes the bug by assigning xfs_alloc_arg->total to the value of
xfs_bmalloca->total.

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
