Qu Wenruo 6ec9765d74 btrfs: introduce compressed_bio::pending_sectors to trace compressed bio
For btrfs_submit_compressed_read() and btrfs_submit_compressed_write(),
we have a pretty weird dance around compressed_bio::pending_bios:

  btrfs_submit_compressed_read/write()
  {
	cb = kmalloc()
	refcount_set(&cb->pending_bios, 0);
	bio = btrfs_alloc_bio();

	/* NOTE here, we haven't yet submitted any bio */
	refcount_set(&cb->pending_bios, 1);

	for (pg_index = 0; pg_index < cb->nr_pages; pg_index++) {
		if (submit) {
			/* Here we submit bio, but we always have one
			 * extra pending_bios */
			refcount_inc(&cb->pending_bios);
			ret = btrfs_map_bio();
		}
	}

	/* Submit the last bio */
	ret = btrfs_map_bio();
  }

There are two reasons why we do this:

- compressed_bio::pending_bios is a refcount
  Thus if it's reduced to 0, it can not be increased again.

- To ensure the compressed_bio is not freed by some submitted bios
  If the submitted bio is finished before the next bio submitted,
  we can free the compressed_bio completely.

But the above code is sometimes confusing, and we can do it better by
introducing a new member, compressed_bio::pending_sectors.

Now we use compressed_bio::pending_sectors to indicate whether we have
any pending sectors under IO or not yet submitted.

If pending_sectors == 0, we're definitely the last bio of compressed_bio,
and is OK to release the compressed bio.

Now the workflow looks like this:

  btrfs_submit_compressed_read/write()
  {
	cb = kmalloc()
	atomic_set(&cb->pending_bios, 0);
	refcount_set(&cb->pending_sectors,
		     compressed_len >> sectorsize_bits);
	bio = btrfs_alloc_bio();

	for (pg_index = 0; pg_index < cb->nr_pages; pg_index++) {
		if (submit) {
			refcount_inc(&cb->pending_bios);
			ret = btrfs_map_bio();
		}
	}

	/* Submit the last bio */
	refcount_inc(&cb->pending_bios);
	ret = btrfs_map_bio();
  }

For now we still need pending_bios for later error handling, but will
remove pending_bios eventually after properly handling the errors.

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.
