Pull btrfs fixes and features from Chris Mason:
"We've merged in the error handling patches from SuSE. These are
already shipping in the sles kernel, and they give btrfs the ability
to abort transactions and go readonly on errors. It involves a lot of
churn as they clarify BUG_ONs, and remove the ones we now properly
deal with.
Josef reworked the way our metadata interacts with the page cache.
page->private now points to the btrfs extent_buffer object, which
makes everything faster. He changed it so we write an whole extent
buffer at a time instead of allowing individual pages to go down,,
which will be important for the raid5/6 code (for the 3.5 merge
window ;)
Josef also made us more aggressive about dropping pages for metadata
blocks that were freed due to COW. Overall, our metadata caching is
much faster now.
We've integrated my patch for metadata bigger than the page size.
This allows metadata blocks up to 64KB in size. In practice 16K and
32K seem to work best. For workloads with lots of metadata, this cuts
down the size of the extent allocation tree dramatically and fragments
much less.
Scrub was updated to support the larger block sizes, which ended up
being a fairly large change (thanks Stefan Behrens).
We also have an assortment of fixes and updates, especially to the
balancing code (Ilya Dryomov), the back ref walker (Jan Schmidt) and
the defragging code (Liu Bo)."
Fixed up trivial conflicts in fs/btrfs/scrub.c that were just due to
removal of the second argument to k[un]map_atomic() in commit
7ac687d9e0.

Dave Sterba had put in patches to look for mixed data/metadata groups
with metadata bigger than 4KB. But these ended up in the wrong place
and it wasn't testing the feature flag correctly.
This updates the tests to make sure our sizes are matching

When we use autodefrag, we forget to update the index which indicates
the last page we've dirty. And we'll set dirty flags on a same set of
pages again and again.

Now we have a big real extent [0, 40960), but autodefrag will still defrag it.
$ sync
$ filefrag -v /mnt/btrfs/foobar
Filesystem type is: 9123683e
File size of /mnt/btrfs/foobar is 40960 (10 blocks, blocksize 4096)

So if we already find a big real extent, we're ok about that, just skip it.

If our file's layout is as follows:
| hole | data1 | hole | data2 |
we do not need to defrag this file, because this file has holes and
cannot be merged into one extent.

$ mkfs.btrfs disk
$ mount disk /mnt -o autodefrag

$ for i in `seq 9 -2 0`; do dd if=/dev/zero of=/mnt/foobar bs=4k count=1 \
seek=$i conv=notrunc 2> /dev/null; done && sync
then we'll get to defrag "foobar" again and again.
So does option "-o autodefrag,compress".
Reasons:
When the cleaner kthread gets to fetch inodes from the defrag tree and defrag
them, it will dirty pages and submit them, this will comes to another DATA COW
where the processing inode will be inserted to the defrag tree again.
This patch sets a rule for COW code, i.e. insert an inode when we're really
going to make some defragments.

commit 600a45e1d5
(Btrfs: fix deadlock on page lock when doing auto-defragment)
fixes the deadlock on page, but it also introduces another bug.
A page may have been truncated after unlock & lock.
So we need to find it again to get the right one.
And since we've held i_mutex lock, inode size remains unchanged and
we can drop isize overflow checks.

The bug is from running xfstests 209 with autodefrag.
The race is as follows:
t1 t2(autodefrag)
direct IO
invalidate pagecache
dio(old data) add_inode_defrag
invalidate pagecache
endio
direct IO
invalidate pagecache
run_defrag
readpage(old data)
set page dirty (old data)
dio(new data, rewrite)
invalidate pagecache (*)
endio
t2(autodefrag) will get old data into pagecache via readpage and set
pagecache dirty. Meanwhile, invalidate pagecache(*) will fail due to
dirty flags in pages. So the old data may be flushed into disk by
flush thread, which will lead to data loss.
And so does the case of user defragment progs.
The patch fixes this race by holding i_mutex when we readpage and set page dirty.

This deadlock comes from xfstests 251.
We'll hold the chunk_mutex throughout the whole of a chunk allocation.
But if we find that we've used up system chunk space, we need to allocate a
new system chunk, but this will lead to a recursion of chunk allocation and end
up with a deadlock on chunk_mutex.
So instead we need to allocate the system chunk first if we find we're in ENOSPC.

With the big metadata blocks, we can have crc items
that are much bigger than a page. There are a few
places that we try to kmalloc memory to hold the
items during a split.
Items bigger than 4KB don't really have a huge benefit
in efficiency, but they do trigger larger order allocations.
This commits changes the csums to make sure they stay under
4KB. This is not a format change, just a #define to limit
huge items.

Btrfs puts the filesystem metadata into its own address space, and
somehow the block device address space isn't getting onto disk properly
before a mount. The end result is that a loop of mkfs and mounting the
filesystem will sometimes find stale or incorrect data.
This commit should fix it by sprinkling fdatawrites and invalidate_bdev
calls around. This is a short term measure to make sure it is fixed.
The block devices really should be flushed and cleaned up higher in the
stack.

With support for bigger metadata blocks, we must avoid mounting a
filesystem with different block size for mixed block groups, this causes
corruption (found by xfstests/083).

Readahead already has a define for the max number of mirrors. Scrub
needs such a define now, the rest of the code will need something
like this soon. Therefore the define was added to ctree.h and removed
from the readahead code.

Currently if we don't have enough space allocated we go ahead and loop
though devices in the hopes of finding enough space for a chunk of the
*same* type as the one we are trying to relocate. The problem with that
is that if we are trying to restripe the chunk its target type can be
more relaxed than the current one (eg require less devices or less
space). So, when restriping, run checks against the target profile
instead of the current one.
