Dave Chinner 991c2c5980 xfs: btree format inode forks can have zero extents
xfs/538 is assert failing with this trace when testing with
directory block sizes of 64kB:

XFS: Assertion failed: !xfs_need_iread_extents(ifp), file: fs/xfs/libxfs/xfs_bmap.c, line: 608

This is a check to ensure that the extents have been read into
memory before we are doing a ifork btree manipulation. This assert
is bogus in the above case.

We have a fragmented directory block that has more extents in it
than can fit in extent format, so the inode data fork is in btree
format. xfs_dir2_shrink_inode() asks to remove all remaining 16
filesystem blocks from the inode so it can convert to short form,
and __xfs_bunmapi() removes all the extents. We now have a data fork
in btree format but have zero extents in the fork. This incorrectly
trips the xfs_need_iread_extents() assert because it assumes that an
empty extent btree means the extent tree has not been read into
memory yet. This is clearly not the case with xfs_bunmapi(), as it
has an explicit call to xfs_iread_extents() in it to pull the
extents into memory before it starts unmapping.

Also, the assert directly after this bogus one is:

	ASSERT(ifp->if_format == XFS_DINODE_FMT_BTREE);

Which covers the context in which it is legal to call
xfs_bmap_btree_to_extents just fine. Hence we should just remove the
bogus assert as it is clearly wrong and causes a regression.

The returns the test behaviour to the pre-existing assert failure in
xfs_dir2_shrink_inode() that indicates xfs_bunmapi() has failed to
remove all the extents in the range it was asked to unmap.

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.
