[PATCH v3 0/14] btrfs: Introduce macro to iterate over slots

[Gabriel Niebler <gniebler@suse.com>]

There is a common pattern when searching for a key in btrfs:

* Call btrfs_search_slot to find the slot for the key
* Enter an endless loop:
	* If the found slot is larger than the no. of items in the current leaf,
	  check the next leaf
	* If it's still not found in the next leaf, terminate the loop
	* Otherwise do something with the found key
	* Increment the current slot and continue

To reduce code duplication, we can replace this code pattern with an iterator
macro, similar to the existing for_each_X macros found elsewhere in the kernel.
This also makes the code easier to understand for newcomers by putting a name
to the encapsulated functionality.

This patchset survived a complete fstest run.

Changes from v2:
 * Rename btrfs_valid_slot to btrfs_get_next_valid_item (Nikolay)
 * Fix comment formatting (David)
 * Remove redundant parentheses and indentation in loop condition (David)
 * Remove redundant iter_ret var and reuse ret instead (Nikolay)
 * Make termination condition more consistent in btrfs_unlink_all_paths
   (Nikolay)
 * Improved patch organisation by splitting into one patch per function (David)
 * Improve doc comment for btrfs_get_next_valid_item (Gabriel)
 * Remove `out` label and assoc. gotos from id_create_dir (Gabriel)
 * Initialise `ret` in process_all_refs and process_all_new_xattrs (Gabriel)
 * Remove unneeded btrfs_item_key_to_cpu call from loop body in
   btrfs_read_chunk_tree (Gabriel)

Changes from v1:
 * Separate xattr changes from the macro introducing code (Johannes)

Changes from RFC:
 * Add documentation to btrfs_for_each_slot macro and btrfs_valid_slot function
   (David)
 * Add documentation about the ret variable used as a macro argument (David)
 * Match function argument from prototype and implementation (David)
 * Changed ({ }) block to only () in btrfs_for_each_slot macro (David)
 * Add more patches to show the code being reduced by using this approach
   (Nikolay)
