balance level starts by trying to empty the middle block, and then
pushes from the right to the middle. This might empty the right block
and leave a small number of pointers in the middle.

This isn't required anymore because we don't reallocate blocks that
have already been written in this transaction.

Block headers now store the chunk tree uuid
Chunk items records the device uuid for each stripes
Device extent items record better back refs to the chunk tree
Block groups record better back refs to the chunk tree
The chunk tree format has also changed. The objectid of BTRFS_CHUNK_ITEM_KEY
used to be the logical offset of the chunk. Now it is a chunk tree id,
with the logical offset being stored in the offset field of the key.
This allows a single chunk tree to record multiple logical address spaces,
upping the number of bytes indexed by a chunk tree from 2^64 to
2^128.

Before, metadata checksumming was done by the callers of read_tree_block,
which would set EXTENT_CSUM bits in the extent tree to show that a given
range of pages was already checksummed and didn't need to be verified
again.
But, those bits could go away via try_to_releasepage, and the end
result was bogus checksum failures on pages that never left the cache.
The new code validates checksums when the page is read. It is a little
tricky because metadata blocks can span pages and a single read may
end up going via multiple bios.

Checksums were only verified by btrfs_read_tree_block, which meant the
functions to probe the page cache for blocks were not validating checksums.
Normally this is fine because the buffers will only be in cache if they
have already been validated.
But, there is a window while the buffer is being read from disk where
it could be up to date in the cache but not yet verified. This patch
makes sure all buffers go through checksum verification before they
are used.
This is safer, and it prevents modification of buffers before they go
through the csum code.

This allows detection of blocks that have already been written in the
running transaction so they can be recowed instead of modified again.
It is step one in trusting the transid field of the block pointers.

When freeing root block of a tree, btrfs_free_extent' parameter
'ref_generation' is from root block itseft. When freeing non-root
block, 'ref_generation' is from its parent. so when converting a
non-root block to root block, we must guarantee its generation is
equal to its parent's generation.

This forces file data extents down the disk along with the metadata that
references them. The current implementation is fairly simple, and just
writes out all of the dirty pages in an inode before the commit.

A number of workloads do not require copy on write data or checksumming.
mount -o nodatasum to disable checksums and -o nodatacow to disable
both copy on write and checksumming.
In nodatacow mode, copy on write is still performed when a given extent
is under snapshot.

The codes that fixup the right leaf and the codes that dirty the
extnet buffer use the variable 'right_nritems' , both of them expect
'right_nritems' is the number of items in right leaf after the push.

The fixes do a number of things:
1) Most btrfs_drop_extent callers will try to leave the inline extents in
place. It can truncate bytes off the beginning of the inline extent if
required.
2) writepage can now update the inline extent, allowing mmap writes to
go directly into the inline extent.
3) btrfs_truncate_in_transaction truncates inline extents
4) extent_map.c fixed to not merge inline extent mappings and hole
mappings together

1) Forced defrag wasn't working properly (btrfsctl -d) because some
cache only checks were incorrect.
2) Defrag only the leaves unless in forced defrag mode.
3) Don't use complex logic to figure out if a leaf is needs defrag

When making room for a new item, it is ok to create an empty leaf, but
when making room to extend an item, split_leaf needs to make sure it
keeps the item we're extending in the path and make sure we don't end up
with an empty leaf.

This allows us to defrag huge directories, but skip the expensive defrag
case in more common usage, where it does not help as much.
