Qu Wenruo bc42bda223 btrfs: qgroup: Fix qgroup reserved space underflow by only freeing reserved ranges
[BUG]
For the following case, btrfs can underflow qgroup reserved space
at an error path:
(Page size 4K, function name without "btrfs_" prefix)

         Task A                  |             Task B
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Buffered_write [0, 2K)           |
|- check_data_free_space()       |
|  |- qgroup_reserve_data()      |
|     Range aligned to page      |
|     range [0, 4K)          <<< |
|     4K bytes reserved      <<< |
|- copy pages to page cache      |
                                 | Buffered_write [2K, 4K)
                                 | |- check_data_free_space()
                                 | |  |- qgroup_reserved_data()
                                 | |     Range alinged to page
                                 | |     range [0, 4K)
                                 | |     Already reserved by A <<<
                                 | |     0 bytes reserved      <<<
                                 | |- delalloc_reserve_metadata()
                                 | |  And it *FAILED* (Maybe EQUOTA)
                                 | |- free_reserved_data_space()
                                      |- qgroup_free_data()
                                         Range aligned to page range
                                         [0, 4K)
                                         Freeing 4K
(Special thanks to Chandan for the detailed report and analyse)

[CAUSE]
Above Task B is freeing reserved data range [0, 4K) which is actually
reserved by Task A.

And at writeback time, page dirty by Task A will go through writeback
routine, which will free 4K reserved data space at file extent insert
time, causing the qgroup underflow.

[FIX]
For btrfs_qgroup_free_data(), add @reserved parameter to only free
data ranges reserved by previous btrfs_qgroup_reserve_data().
So in above case, Task B will try to free 0 byte, so no underflow.

Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users.
These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.

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.
