btrfs_cleanup_defrag_inodes() is not called frequently, only in remount or unmount, but the way it frees the inodes in fs_info->defrag_inodes is inefficient. Each time it needs to locate first node, remove it, potentially rebalance tree until it's done. This allows to do a conditional reschedule. For cleanups the rbtree_postorder_for_each_entry_safe() iterator is convenient but we can't reschedule and restart iteration because some of the tree nodes would be already freed. The cleanup operation is kmem_cache_free() which will likely take the fast path for most objects so rescheduling should not be necessary.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
