Qu Wenruo 94ead93e63 btrfs: scrub: use recovered data stripes as cache to avoid unnecessary read
For P/Q stripe scrub, we have quite some duplicated read IO:

- Data stripes read for verification
  This is triggered by the scrub_submit_initial_read() inside
  scrub_raid56_parity_stripe().

- Data stripes read (again) for P/Q stripe verification
  This is triggered by scrub_assemble_read_bios() from scrub_rbio().

  Although we can have hit rbio cache and avoid unnecessary read, the
  chance is very low, as scrub would easily flush the whole rbio cache.

This means, even we're just scrubbing a single P/Q stripe, we would read
the data stripes twice for the best case scenario.  If we need to
recover some data stripes, it would cause more reads on the same data
stripes, again and again.

However before we call raid56_parity_submit_scrub_rbio() we already
have all data stripes repaired and their contents ready to use.
But RAID56 cache is unaware about the scrub cache, thus RAID56 layer
itself still needs to re-read the data stripes.

To avoid such cache miss, this patch would:

- Introduce a new helper, raid56_parity_cache_data_pages()
  This function would grab the pages from an array, and copy the content
  to the rbio, marking all the involved sectors uptodate.

  The page copy is unavoidable because of the cache pages of rbio are all
  self managed, thus can not utilize outside pages without screwing up
  the lifespan.

- Use the repaired data stripes as cache inside
  scrub_raid56_parity_stripe()

By this, we ensure all the data sectors of the scrub rbio are already
uptodate, and no need to read them again from disk.

README

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.
