From: Jinliang Zheng <alexjlzheng@tencent.com>

When the contents of the xfs_log_vec/xfs_log_iovec combination are
written to iclog, xfs_log_iovec loses its meaning in continuing to exist
in memory, because iclog already has a copy of its contents. We only
need to keep xfs_log_vec that takes up very little memory to find the
xfs_log_item that needs to be added to AIL after we flush the iclog into
the disk log space.

Because xfs_log_iovec dominates most of the memory in the
xfs_log_vec/xfs_log_iovec combination, retaining xfs_log_iovec until
iclog is flushed into the disk log space and releasing together with
xfs_log_vec is a significant waste of memory.

This patch separates the memory of xfs_log_iovec from that of
xfs_log_vec, and releases the memory of xfs_log_iovec in advance to save
memory.
