[PATCH -next v5 7/8] xfs: speed up truncating down a big realtime inode

If we truncate down a big realtime inode, zero out the entire aligned
EOF extent could gets slow down as the rtextsize increases. Fortunately,
__xfs_bunmapi() would align the unmapped range to rtextsize, split and
convert the blocks beyond EOF to unwritten. So speed up this by
adjusting the unitsize to the filesystem blocksize when truncating down
a large realtime inode, let __xfs_bunmapi() convert the tail blocks to
unwritten, this could improve the performance significantly.

# mkfs.xfs -f -rrtdev=/dev/pmem1s -f -m reflink=0,rmapbt=0, \
-d rtinherit=1 -r extsize=$rtextsize /dev/pmem2s
# mount -ortdev=/dev/pmem1s /dev/pmem2s /mnt/scratch
# for i in {1..1000}; \
do dd if=/dev/zero of=/mnt/scratch/$i bs=$rtextsize count=1024; done
# sync
# time for i in {1..1000}; \
do xfs_io -c "truncate 4k" /mnt/scratch/$i; done

rtextsize 8k 16k 32k 64k 256k 1024k
before: 9.601s 10.229s 11.153s 12.086s 12.259s 20.141s
after: 9.710s 9.642s 9.958s 9.441s 10.021s 10.526s
