Darrick J. Wong 05290bd5c6 xfs: allow inode-based btrees to reserve space in the data device
Create a new space reservation scheme so that btree metadata for the
realtime volume can reserve space in the data device to avoid space
underruns.

Back when we were testing the rmap and refcount btrees for the data
device, people observed occasional shutdowns when xfs_btree_split was
called for either of those two btrees.  This happened when certain
operations (mostly writeback ioends) created new rmap or refcount
records, which would expand the size of the btree.  If there were no
free blocks available the allocation would fail and the split would shut
down the filesystem.

I considered pre-reserving blocks for btree expansion at the time of a
write() call, but there wasn't any good way to attach the reservations
to an inode and keep them there all the way to ioend processing.  Unlike
delalloc reservations which have that indlen mechanism, there's no way
to do that for mapped extents; and indlen blocks are given back during
the delalloc -> unwritten transition.

The solution was to reserve sufficient blocks for rmap/refcount btree
expansion at mount time.  This is what the XFS_AG_RESV_* flags provide;
any expansion of those two btrees can come from the pre-reserved space.

This patch brings that pre-reservation ability to inode-rooted btrees so
that the rt rmap and refcount btrees can also save room for future
expansion.

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.

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.
