Btrfs: add a rb_tree to improve performance of ulist search



Walking backref tree and btrfs quota rely on ulist very much.
This patch tries to use rb_tree to speed up search time.

The original code always checks whether an element
exists before adding a new element, however it costs O(n).

I try to add a rb_tree in the ulist,this is only used to speed up
search. I also do some measurements with quota enabled.

fsstress -p 4 -n 10000

Without this path:
real    0m51.058s       2m4.745s        1m28.222s       1m5.137s
user    0m0.035s        0m0.041s        0m0.105s        0m0.100s

After applying the patch,the execute time is down by ~42%.(11.287s->6.532s)
