btrfs: sysfs: add force_chunk_alloc trigger to force allocation
Adds write-only trigger to force new chunk allocation for a given block group type. It is at /sys/fs/btrfs/<uuid>/allocation/<type>/force_chunk_alloc Note: this is now only for debugging and testing and is enabled with the CONFIG_BTRFS_DEBUG configuration option. The transaction is started from sysfs context and can be problematic in some cases. Signed-off-by:Stefan Roesch <shr@fb.com> Reviewed-by:
