btrfs: reject single block sized compression early
Currently for an inode that needs compression, even if there is a delalloc range that is single fs block sized and can not be inlined, we will still go through the compression path. Then inside compress_file_range(), we have one extra check to reject single block sized range, and fall back to regular uncompressed write. This rejection is in fact a little too late, we have already allocated memory to async_chunk, delayed the submission, just to fallback to the same uncompressed write. Change the behavior to reject such cases earlier at inode_need_compress(), so for such single block sized range we won't even bother trying to go through compress path. And since the inline small block check is inside inode_need_compress() and compress_file_range() also calls that function, we no longer need a dedicate check inside compress_file_range().
