Btrfs: fix ->iterate_shared() by upgrading i_rwsem for delayed nodes
Commit fe742fd4f90f ("Revert "btrfs: switch to ->iterate_shared()"")
backed out the conversion to ->iterate_shared() for Btrfs because the
delayed inode handling in btrfs_real_readdir() is racy. However, we can
still do readdir in parallel if there are no delayed nodes.
This is a temporary fix which upgrades the shared inode lock to an
exclusive lock only when we have delayed items until we come up with a
more complete solution. While we're here, rename the
btrfs_{get,put}_delayed_items functions to make it very clear that
they're just for readdir.
Tested with xfstests and by doing a parallel kernel build:
while make tinyconfig && make -j4 && git clean dqfx; do
:
done
along with a bunch of parallel finds in another shell:
while true; do
for ((i=0; i<4; i++)); do
find . >/dev/null &
done
wait
done
