[XFS] Allow 64 bit machines to avoid the AIL lock during flushes When copying lsn's from the log item to the inode or dquot flush lsn, we currently grab the AIL lock. We do this because the LSN is a 64 bit quantity and it needs to be read atomically. The lock is used to guarantee atomicity for 32 bit platforms. Make the LSN copying a small function, and make the function used conditional on BITS_PER_LONG so that 64 bit machines don't need to take the AIL lock in these places.
