btrfs: fix refcount_t usage when deleting btrfs_delayed_nodes
refcounts have a generic implementation and an asm optimized one. The
generic version has extra debugging to make sure that once a refcount
goes to zero, refcount_inc won't increase it.
The btrfs delayed inode code wasn't expecting this, and we're tripping
over the warnings when the generic refcounts are used. We ended up with
this race:
Process A Process B
btrfs_get_delayed_node()
spin_lock(root->inode_lock)
radix_tree_lookup()
__btrfs_release_delayed_node()
refcount_dec_and_test(&delayed_node->refs)
our refcount is now zero
refcount_add(2) <---
warning here, refcount
unchanged
spin_lock(root->inode_lock)
radix_tree_delete()
With the generic refcounts, we actually warn again when process B above
tries to release his refcount because refcount_add() turned into a
no-op.
We saw this in production on older kernels without the asm optimized
refcounts.
The fix used here is to use refcount_inc_not_zero() to detect when the
object is in the middle of being freed and return NULL. This is almost
always the right answer anyway, since we usually end up pitching the
delayed_node if it didn't have fresh data in it.
This also changes __btrfs_release_delayed_node() to remove the extra
check for zero refcounts before radix tree deletion.
btrfs_get_delayed_node() was the only path that was allowing refcounts
to go from zero to one.
