Goldwyn Rodrigues 60dc79d678 btrfs: simplify inode locking for RWF_NOWAIT
commit 9cf35f6735 upstream.

This is similar to 942491c9e6 ("xfs: fix AIM7 regression"). Apparently
our current rwsem code doesn't like doing the trylock, then lock for
real scheme. This causes extra contention on the lock and can be
measured eg. by AIM7 benchmark.  So change our read/write methods to
just do the trylock for the RWF_NOWAIT case.

Fixes: edf064e7c6 ("btrfs: nowait aio support")

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 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.
