Erase I/Os are scheduled with the following goals in mind: (i) minimize LUNs collisions with write I/Os, and (ii) even out the price of erasing on every write, instead of putting all the burden on when garbage collection runs. This works well on the current design, but is specific to the default mapping algorithm. This patch generalizes the erase path so that other mapping algorithms can select an arbitrary line to be erased instead. It also gets rid of the erase semaphore since it creates jittering for user writes.
