btrfs: ensure relocation never runs while we have send operations running
Relocation and send do not play well together because while send is running a block group can be relocated, a transaction committed and the respective disk extents get re-allocated and written to or discarded while send is about to do something with the extents. This was explained in commit 9e967495 ("Btrfs: prevent send failures and crashes due to concurrent relocation"), which prevented balance and send from running in parallel but it did not address one remaining case where chunk relocation can happen: shrinking a device (and device deletion which shrinks a device's size to 0 before deleting the device). We also have now one more case where relocation is triggered: on zoned filesystems partially used block groups get relocated by a background thread, introduced in commit 18bb8bbf ("btrfs: zoned: automatically reclaim zones"). So make sure that instead of preventing balance from running when there are ongoing send operations, we prevent relocation from happening. This uses the infrastructure recently added by a patch that has the subject: "btrfs: add cancellable chunk relocation support". Also it adds a spinlock used exclusively for the exclusivity between send and relocation, as before fs_info->balance_mutex was used, which would make an attempt to run send to block waiting for balance to finish, which can take a lot of time on large filesystems.
