btrfs: zoned: write out partially allocated region



[ Upstream commit 898793d9 ]

cow_file_range() works in an all-or-nothing way: if it fails to allocate an
extent for a part of the given region, it gives up all the region including
the successfully allocated parts. On cow_file_range(), run_delalloc_zoned()
writes data for the region only when it successfully allocate all the
region.

This all-or-nothing allocation and write-out are problematic when available
space in all the block groups are get tight with the active zone
restriction. btrfs_reserve_extent() try hard to utilize the left space in
the active block groups and gives up finally and fails with
-ENOSPC. However, if we send IOs for the successfully allocated region, we
can finish a zone and can continue on the rest of the allocation on a newly
allocated block group.

This patch implements the partial write-out for run_delalloc_zoned(). With
this patch applied, cow_file_range() returns -EAGAIN to tell the caller to
do something to progress the further allocation, and tells the successfully
allocated region with done_offset. Furthermore, the zoned extent allocator
returns -EAGAIN to tell cow_file_range() going back to the caller side.

Actually, we still need to wait for an IO to complete to continue the
allocation. The next patch implements that part.
