Btrfs: fix wrong outstanding_extents when doing DIO write
When running the 083th case of xfstests on the filesystem with "compress-force=lzo", the following WARNINGs were triggered. WARNING: at fs/btrfs/inode.c:7908 WARNING: at fs/btrfs/inode.c:7909 WARNING: at fs/btrfs/inode.c:7911 WARNING: at fs/btrfs/extent-tree.c:4510 WARNING: at fs/btrfs/extent-tree.c:4511 This problem was introduced by the patch "Btrfs: fix deadlock due to unsubmitted". In this patch, there are two bugs which caused the above problem. The 1st one is a off-by-one bug, if the DIO write return 0, it is also a short write, we need release the reserved space for it. But we didn't do it in that patch. Fix it by change "ret > 0" to "ret >= 0". The 2nd one is ->outstanding_extents was increased twice when a short write happened. As we know, ->outstanding_extents is a counter to keep track of the number of extent items we may use duo to delalloc, when we reserve the free space for a delalloc write, we assume that the write will introduce just one extent item, so we increase ->outstanding_extents by 1 at that time. And then we will increase it every time we split the write, it is done at the beginning of btrfs_get_blocks_direct(). So when a short write happens, we needn't increase ->outstanding_extents again. But this patch done. In order to fix the 2nd problem, I re-write the logic for ->outstanding_extents operation. We don't increase it at the beginning of btrfs_get_blocks_direct(), instead, we just increase it when the split actually happens.
