[RFC,v2,34/83] Journal: NOVA light weight journal definitions.

Commit Message

From: Andiry Xu <[e-mail]>

NOVA uses per-CPU lite journals to provide fast atomicity guarantees
for multi-log appending and multi-word inplace updates.

NOVA uses undo journaling. Each journal is a circular buffer
of 4KB pmem page. Two pointers, journal_head and journal_tail
reside in the reserved journal block, and point to the journal page.
If the two pointers are not equal, there are uncommitted transactions
and NOVA recovers the data by replaying the journal entries.
