xfs: redesign the reflink remap loop to fix blkres depletion crash
The existing reflink remapping loop has some structural problems that need addressing: The biggest problem is that we create one transaction for each extent in the source file without accounting for the number of mappings there are for the same range in the destination file. In other words, we don't know the number of remap operations that will be necessary and we therefore cannot guess the block reservation required. On highly fragmented filesystems (e.g. ones with active dedupe) we guess wrong, run out of block reservation, and fail. The second problem is that we don't actually use the bmap intents to their full potential -- instead of calling bunmapi directly and having to deal with its backwards operation, we could call the deferred ops xfs_bmap_unmap_extent and xfs_refcount_decrease_extent instead. This makes the frontend loop much simpler. Solve all of these problems by refactoring the remapping loops so that we only perform one remapping operation per transaction, and each operation only tries to remap a single extent from source to dest.
