* [PATCH v2] ext4: remove the entry from es tree when bigalloc is enabled

Now in ext4_da_page_release_reservation() we remove the entry from es
tree if to_release != 0.  But there are two issues.  One is that it is
wrong when blocksize != pagesize, another is that we don't need to do
this if ->s_cluster_ratio == 1 because we will remove the entry in
ext4_truncate/ext4_punch_hole.  Here we need to do this just because
when ->s_cluster_ratio > 1 we will determine whether we can release
the reserved space according to ext4_find_delalloc_cluster().

This commit tries to fix these problems.  Now we remove the entry from
es tree only if ->s_cluster_ratio > 1.

The commit description says that this is wrong, but I don't see
anything in the patch which addresses this.  And could you state what
the impact is of this wrongness?

Thanks,

  Well, this wrongness actually shouldn't have any real impact - for
blocksize < pagesize the extent tree isn't used while truncate_pagecache()
is running and ext4_truncate() then removes the whole truncated range from
the tree again which hides any problems in
ext4_da_page_release_reservation(). When bigalloc is used, we use the
extent tree during truncate_pagecache() but to_release is always == 1 and
thus the problem doesn't exist.

Sorry for my bad description.  As Jan said, this patch doesn't address
any issue.  It just makes the code clearly.  After applied this patch,
I still get the warning messages from ext4_da_release_space running
xfstests #74 when blocksize = 1k.

Thanks,
                                                - Zheng

  Interesting. I never noticed those but now I see them as well. Dave Jones
also reported this problem (although he didn't mention 1KB blocksize).
I'll try to have a look into it.
