Qu Wenruo 524272607e btrfs: Handle delalloc error correctly to avoid ordered extent hang
[BUG]
If run_delalloc_range() returns error and there is already some ordered
extents created, btrfs will be hanged with the following backtrace:

[CAUSE]

|<------------------ delalloc range --------------------------->|
| OE 1 | OE 2 | ... | OE n |
|<>|                       |<---------- cleanup range --------->|
 ||
 \_=> First page handled by end_extent_writepage() in __extent_writepage()

The problem is caused by error handler of run_delalloc_range(), which
doesn't handle any created ordered extents, leaving them waiting on
btrfs_finish_ordered_io() to finish.

However after run_delalloc_range() returns error, __extent_writepage()
won't submit bio, so btrfs_writepage_end_io_hook() won't be triggered
except the first page, and btrfs_finish_ordered_io() won't be triggered
for created ordered extents either.

So OE 2~n will hang forever, and if OE 1 is larger than one page, it
will also hang.

[FIX]
Introduce btrfs_cleanup_ordered_extents() function to cleanup created
ordered extents and finish them manually.

The function is based on existing
btrfs_endio_direct_write_update_ordered() function, and modify it to
act just like btrfs_writepage_endio_hook() but handles specified range
other than one page.

After fix, delalloc error will be handled like:

|<------------------ delalloc range --------------------------->|
| OE 1 | OE 2 | ... | OE n |
|<>|<--------  ----------->|<------ old error handler --------->|
 ||          ||
 ||          \_=> Cleaned up by cleanup_ordered_extents()
 \_=> First page handled by end_extent_writepage() in __extent_writepage()

Linux kernel
============

This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst

Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users.
These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.

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.
