    Btrfs: do not async metadata csumming in certain situations · de0022b9
    Josef Bacik authored
    There are a coule scenarios where farming metadata csumming off to an async
    thread doesn't help.  The first is if our processor supports crc32c, in
    which case the csumming will be fast and so the overhead of the async model
    is not worth the cost.  The other case is for our tree log.  We will be
    making that stuff dirty and writing it out and waiting for it immediately.
    Even with software crc32c this gives me a ~15% increase in speed with O_SYNC
    workloads.  Thanks,
