btrfs: fix deadlock when reserving space during defrag
When defragging we can end up collecting a range for defrag that has already pages under delalloc (dirty), as long as the respective extent map for their range is not mapped to a hole, a prealloc extent or the extent map is from an old generation. Most of the time that is harmless from a functional perspective at least, however it can result in a deadlock: 1) At defrag_collect_targets() we find an extent map that meets all requirements but there's delalloc for the range it covers, and we add its range to list of ranges to defrag; 2) The defrag_collect_targets() function is called at defrag_one_range(), after it locked a range that overlaps the range of the extent map; 3) At defrag_one_range(), while the range is still locked, we call defrag_one_locked_target() for the range associated to the extent map we collected at step 1); 4) Then finally at defrag_one_locked_target() we do a call to btrfs_delalloc_reserve_space(), which will reserve data and metadata space. If the space reservations can not be satisfied right away, the flusher might be kicked in and start flushing delalloc and wait for the respective ordered extents to complete. If this happens we will deadlock, because both flushing delalloc and finishing an ordered extent, requires locking the range in the inode's io tree, which was already locked at defrag_collect_targets(). So fix this by skipping extent maps for which there's already delalloc.
