There is now extent_map for mapping offsets in the file to disk and
extent_io for state tracking, IO submission and extent_bufers.
The new extent_map code shifts from [start,end] pairs to [start,len], and
pushes the locking out into the caller. This allows a few performance
optimizations and is easier to use.
A number of extent_map usage bugs were fixed, mostly with failing
to remove extent_map entries when changing the file.

Using ilookup5 during data=ordered writeback could deadlock on I_LOCK. This
saves a pointer to the inode instead.

It is very difficult to create a consistent snapshot of the btree when
other writers may update the btree before the commit is done.
This changes the snapshot creation to happen during the commit, while
no other updates are possible.

This forces file data extents down the disk along with the metadata that
references them. The current implementation is fairly simple, and just
writes out all of the dirty pages in an inode before the commit.

Hello everybody,
compiling btrfs into the kernel results in section mismatch warnings. __exit
functions are called where they are not allowed to. The attached patch fixes
this for me. Not sure if it is correct though.

This allows us to defrag huge directories, but skip the expensive defrag
case in more common usage, where it does not help as much.

btrfs_btree_balance_dirty is changed to pass the number of pages dirtied
for more accurate dirty throttling. This lets the VM make better decisions
about when to force some writeback.

Dead roots are trees left over after a crash, and they were either in the
process of being removed or were waiting to be removed when the box crashed.
Before, a search of the entire tree of root pointers was done on mount
looking for dead roots. Now, the search is done the first time we load
a root.
This makes mount faster when there are a large number of snapshots, and it
enables the block accounting code to properly update the block counts on
the latest root as old versions of the root are reaped after a crash.

This adds two types of btree defrag, a run time form that tries to
defrag recently allocated blocks in the btree when they are still in ram,
and an ioctl that forces defrag of all btree blocks.
File data blocks are not defragged yet, but this can make a huge difference
in sequential btree reads.

Before, snapshot deletion was a single atomic unit. This caused considerable
lock contention and required an unbounded amount of space. Now,
the drop_progress field in the root item is used to indicate how far along
snapshot deletion is, and to resume where it left off.

Almost none of the files including module.h need to do so,
remove them.
Include sched.h in extent-tree.c to silence a warning about cond_resched()
being undeclared.

The super block written during commit was not consistent with the state of
the trees. This change adds an in-memory copy of the super so that we can
make sure to write out consistent data during a commit.
