btrfs: update btrfs_space_info's bytes_may_use timely



This patch can fix some false ENOSPC errors, below test script can
reproduce one false ENOSPC error:
	#!/bin/bash
	dd if=/dev/zero of=fs.img bs=$((1024*1024)) count=128
	dev=$(losetup --show -f fs.img)
	mkfs.btrfs -f -M $dev
	mkdir /tmp/mntpoint
	mount $dev /tmp/mntpoint
	cd /tmp/mntpoint
	xfs_io -f -c "falloc 0 $((64*1024*1024))" testfile

Above script will fail for ENOSPC reason, but indeed fs still has free
space to satisfy this request. Please see call graph:
btrfs_fallocate()
|-> btrfs_alloc_data_chunk_ondemand()
|   bytes_may_use += 64M
|-> btrfs_prealloc_file_range()
    |-> btrfs_reserve_extent()
        |-> btrfs_add_reserved_bytes()
        |   alloc_type is RESERVE_ALLOC_NO_ACCOUNT, so it does not
        |   change bytes_may_use, and bytes_reserved += 64M. Now
        |   bytes_may_use + bytes_reserved == 128M, which is greater
        |   than btrfs_space_info's total_bytes, false enospc occurs.
        |   Note, the bytes_may_use decrease operation will be done in
        |   end of btrfs_fallocate(), which is too late.

Here is another simple case for buffered write:
                    CPU 1              |              CPU 2
                                       |
|-> cow_file_range()                   |-> __btrfs_buffered_write()
    |-> btrfs_reserve_extent()         |   |
    |                                  |   |
    |                                  |   |
    |    .....                         |   |-> btrfs_check_data_free_space()
    |                                  |
    |                                  |
    |-> extent_clear_unlock_delalloc() |

In CPU 1, btrfs_reserve_extent()->find_free_extent()->
btrfs_add_reserved_bytes() do not decrease bytes_may_use, the decrease
operation will be delayed to be done in extent_clear_unlock_delalloc().
Assume in this case, btrfs_reserve_extent() reserved 128MB data, CPU2's
btrfs_check_data_free_space() tries to reserve 100MB data space.
If
	100MB > data_sinfo->total_bytes - data_sinfo->bytes_used -
		data_sinfo->bytes_reserved - data_sinfo->bytes_pinned -
		data_sinfo->bytes_readonly - data_sinfo->bytes_may_use
btrfs_check_data_free_space() will try to allcate new data chunk or call
btrfs_start_delalloc_roots(), or commit current transaction in order to
reserve some free space, obviously a lot of work. But indeed it's not
necessary as long as decreasing bytes_may_use timely, we still have
free space, decreasing 128M from bytes_may_use.

To fix this issue, this patch chooses to update bytes_may_use for both
data and metadata in btrfs_add_reserved_bytes(). For compress path, real
extent length may not be equal to file content length, so introduce a
ram_bytes argument for btrfs_reserve_extent(), find_free_extent() and
btrfs_add_reserved_bytes(), it's becasue bytes_may_use is increased by
file content length. Then compress path can update bytes_may_use
correctly. Also now we can discard RESERVE_ALLOC_NO_ACCOUNT, RESERVE_ALLOC
and RESERVE_FREE.

As we know, usually EXTENT_DO_ACCOUNTING is used for error path. In
run_delalloc_nocow(), for inode marked as NODATACOW or extent marked as
PREALLOC, we also need to update bytes_may_use, but can not pass
EXTENT_DO_ACCOUNTING, because it also clears metadata reservation, so
here we introduce EXTENT_CLEAR_DATA_RESV flag to indicate btrfs_clear_bit_hook()
to update btrfs_space_info's bytes_may_use.

Meanwhile __btrfs_prealloc_file_range() will call
btrfs_free_reserved_data_space() internally for both sucessful and failed
path, btrfs_prealloc_file_range()'s callers does not need to call
btrfs_free_reserved_data_space() any more.
