btrfs: remove inode_lock from struct btrfs_root and use xarray locks
Currently we use the spinlock inode_lock from struct btrfs_root to serialize access to two different data structures: 1) The delayed inodes xarray (struct btrfs_root::delayed_nodes); 2) The inodes xarray (struct btrfs_root::inodes). Instead of using our own lock, we can use the spinlock that is part of the xarray implementation, by using the xa_lock() and xa_unlock() APIs and using the xarray APIs with the double underscore prefix that don't take the xarray locks and assume the caller is using xa_lock() and xa_unlock(). So remove the spinlock inode_lock from struct btrfs_root and use the corresponding xarray locks. This brings 2 benefits: 1) We reduce the size of struct btrfs_root, from 1336 bytes down to 1328 bytes on a 64 bits release kernel config; 2) We reduce lock contention by not using anymore the same lock for changing two different and unrelated xarrays.
