Qu Wenruo 5565b8e0ad btrfs: make module init/exit match their sequence
[BACKGROUND]
In theory init_btrfs_fs() and exit_btrfs_fs() should match their
sequence, thus normally they should look like this:

    init_btrfs_fs()   |   exit_btrfs_fs()
----------------------+------------------------
    init_A();         |
    init_B();         |
    init_C();         |
                      |   exit_C();
                      |   exit_B();
                      |   exit_A();

So is for the error path of init_btrfs_fs().

But it's not the case, some exit functions don't match their init
functions sequence in init_btrfs_fs().

Furthermore in init_btrfs_fs(), we need to have a new error label for
each new init function we added.  This is not really expandable,
especially recently we may add several new functions to init_btrfs_fs().

[ENHANCEMENT]
The patch will introduce the following things to enhance the situation:

- struct init_sequence
  Just a wrapper of init and exit function pointers.

  The init function must use int type as return value, thus some init
  functions need to be updated to return 0.

  The exit function can be NULL, as there are some init sequence just
  outputting a message.

- struct mod_init_seq[] array
  This is a const array, recording all the initialization we need to do
  in init_btrfs_fs(), and the order follows the old init_btrfs_fs().

- bool mod_init_result[] array
  This is a bool array, recording if we have initialized one entry in
  mod_init_seq[].

  The reason to split mod_init_seq[] and mod_init_result[] is to avoid
  section mismatch in reference.

  All init function are in .init.text, but if mod_init_seq[] records
  the @initialized member it can no longer be const, thus will be put
  into .data section, and cause modpost warning.

For init_btrfs_fs() we just call all init functions in their order in
mod_init_seq[] array, and after each call, setting corresponding
mod_init_result[] to true.

For exit_btrfs_fs() and error handling path of init_btrfs_fs(), we just
iterate mod_init_seq[] in reverse order, and skip all uninitialized
entry.

With this patch, init_btrfs_fs()/exit_btrfs_fs() will be much easier to
expand and will always follow the strict order.

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

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

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.
