[PROBLEM]
The existing scrub code for data extents always limit the block size to
sectorsize.
This causes quite some extra scrub_block being allocated:
(there is a data extent at logical bytenr 298844160, length 64KiB)
alloc_scrub_block: new block: logical=298844160 physical=298844160 mirror=1
alloc_scrub_block: new block: logical=298848256 physical=298848256 mirror=1
alloc_scrub_block: new block: logical=298852352 physical=298852352 mirror=1
alloc_scrub_block: new block: logical=298856448 physical=298856448 mirror=1
alloc_scrub_block: new block: logical=298860544 physical=298860544 mirror=1
alloc_scrub_block: new block: logical=298864640 physical=298864640 mirror=1
alloc_scrub_block: new block: logical=298868736 physical=298868736 mirror=1
alloc_scrub_block: new block: logical=298872832 physical=298872832 mirror=1
alloc_scrub_block: new block: logical=298876928 physical=298876928 mirror=1
alloc_scrub_block: new block: logical=298881024 physical=298881024 mirror=1
alloc_scrub_block: new block: logical=298885120 physical=298885120 mirror=1
alloc_scrub_block: new block: logical=298889216 physical=298889216 mirror=1
alloc_scrub_block: new block: logical=298893312 physical=298893312 mirror=1
alloc_scrub_block: new block: logical=298897408 physical=298897408 mirror=1
alloc_scrub_block: new block: logical=298901504 physical=298901504 mirror=1
alloc_scrub_block: new block: logical=298905600 physical=298905600 mirror=1
...
scrub_block_put: free block: logical=298844160 physical=298844160 len=4096 mirror=1

scrub_block_put: free block: logical=298876928 physical=298876928 len=4096 mirror=1
scrub_block_put: free block: logical=298881024 physical=298881024 len=4096 mirror=1
scrub_block_put: free block: logical=298885120 physical=298885120 len=4096 mirror=1
scrub_block_put: free block: logical=298889216 physical=298889216 len=4096 mirror=1
scrub_block_put: free block: logical=298893312 physical=298893312 len=4096 mirror=1
scrub_block_put: free block: logical=298897408 physical=298897408 len=4096 mirror=1
scrub_block_put: free block: logical=298901504 physical=298901504 len=4096 mirror=1
scrub_block_put: free block: logical=298905600 physical=298905600 len=4096 mirror=1
This behavior will waste a lot of memory, especially after we have moved
quite some members from scrub_sector to scrub_block.
[FIX]
To reduce the allocation of scrub_block, and to reduce memory usage, use
BTRFS_STRIPE_LEN instead of sectorsize as the block size to scrub data
extents.
This results only one scrub_block to be allocated for above data extent:
alloc_scrub_block: new block: logical=298844160 physical=298844160 mirror=1
scrub_block_put: free block: logical=298844160 physical=298844160 len=65536 mirror=1
This would greatly reduce the memory usage (even it's just transient)
for larger data extents scrub.
For above example, the memory usage would be:
Old: num_sectors * (sizeof(scrub_block) + sizeof(scrub_sector))
16 * (408 + 96) = 8065
New: sizeof(scrub_block) + num_sectors * sizeof(scrub_sector)
408 + 16 * 96 = 1944
A good reduction of 75.9%.

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.
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.
