xfs: clean up symbolic link code [v29.2 19/59]
This series cleans up a few bits of the symbolic link code as needed for future projects. Online repair requires the ability to commit fixed fork-based filesystem metadata such as directories, xattrs, and symbolic links atomically, so we need to rearrange the symlink code before we land the atomic extent swapping. Accomplish this by moving the remote symlink target block code and declarations to xfs_symlink_remote.[ch]. This has been running on the djcloud for months with no problems. Enjoy!
