    btrfs: make nodesize >= PAGE_SIZE case to reuse the non-subpage routine · fbca46eb
    Qu Wenruo authored
    The reason why we only support 64K page size for subpage is, for 64K
    page size we can ensure no matter what the nodesize is, we can fit it
    into one page.
    
    When other page size come, especially like 16K, the limitation is a bit
    limiting.
    
    To remove such limitation, we allow nodesize >= PAGE_SIZE case to go the
    non-subpage routine.  By this, we can allow 4K sectorsize on 16K page
    size.
    
    Although this introduces another smaller limitation, the metadata can
    not cross page boundary, which is already met by most recent mkfs.
    
    Another small improvement is, we can avoid the overhead for metadata if
    nodesize >= PAGE_SIZE.
    For 4K sector size and 64K page size/node size, or 4K sector size and
    16K page size/node size, we don't need to allocate extra memory for the
    metadata pages.
    
    Please note that, this patch will not yet enable other page size support
    yet.
