Log intent recovery is the last user of an external (on-stack) dfops. The pattern exists because the dfops is used to collect additional deferred operations queued during the whole recovery sequence. The dfops is finished with a new transaction after intent recovery completes. We already have a mechanism to create an empty, container-like transaction to support the scrub infrastructure. We can reuse that mechanism here to drop the final user of external dfops. This facilitates folding dfops state (i.e., dop_low) into the transaction, the elimination of now unused external dfops support and also eliminates the only caller of __xfs_defer_cancel(). Replace the on-stack dfops with an empty transaction and pass it around to the various helpers that queue and finish deferred operations during intent recovery.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
