    btrfs: load free space cache into a temporary ctl · cd79909b
    Josef Bacik authored
    The free space cache has been special in that we would load it right
    away instead of farming the work off to a worker thread.  This resulted
    in some weirdness that had to be taken into account for this fact,
    namely that if we every found a block group being cached the fast way we
    had to wait for it to finish, because we could get the cache before it
    had been validated and we may throw the cache away.
    
    To handle this particular case instead create a temporary
    btrfs_free_space_ctl to load the free space cache into.  Then once we've
    validated that it makes sense, copy it's contents into the actual
    block_group->free_space_ctl.  This allows us to avoid the problems of
    needing to wait for the caching to complete, we can clean up the discard
    extent handling stuff in __load_free_space_cache, and we no longer need
    to do the merge_space_tree() because the space is added one by one into
    the real free_space_ctl.  This will allow further reworks of how we
    handle loading the free space cache.
