In our production environment, we find that mounting a 500M /boot
which is umount cleanly needs ~6s. One cause is that ffs() is
used by xlog_write_log_records() to decide the buffer size. It
can cause a lot of small IO easily when xlog_clear_stale_blocks()
needs to wrap around the end of log area and log head block is
not power of two. Things are similar in xlog_find_verify_cycle().
The code is able to handed bigger buffer very well, we can use
roundup_pow_of_two() to replace ffs() directly to avoid small
and sychronous IOs.
