Qu Wenruo 4751832da9 btrfs: fiemap: Cache and merge fiemap extent before submit it to user
[BUG]
Cycle mount btrfs can cause fiemap to return different result.
Like:
 # mount /dev/vdb5 /mnt/btrfs
 # dd if=/dev/zero bs=16K count=4 oflag=dsync of=/mnt/btrfs/file
 # xfs_io -c "fiemap -v" /mnt/btrfs/file
 /mnt/test/file:
 EXT: FILE-OFFSET      BLOCK-RANGE      TOTAL FLAGS
   0: [0..127]:        25088..25215       128   0x1
 # umount /mnt/btrfs
 # mount /dev/vdb5 /mnt/btrfs
 # xfs_io -c "fiemap -v" /mnt/btrfs/file
 /mnt/test/file:
 EXT: FILE-OFFSET      BLOCK-RANGE      TOTAL FLAGS
   0: [0..31]:         25088..25119        32   0x0
   1: [32..63]:        25120..25151        32   0x0
   2: [64..95]:        25152..25183        32   0x0
   3: [96..127]:       25184..25215        32   0x1
But after above fiemap, we get correct merged result if we call fiemap
again.
 # xfs_io -c "fiemap -v" /mnt/btrfs/file
 /mnt/test/file:
 EXT: FILE-OFFSET      BLOCK-RANGE      TOTAL FLAGS
   0: [0..127]:        25088..25215       128   0x1

[REASON]
Btrfs will try to merge extent map when inserting new extent map.

btrfs_fiemap(start=0 len=(u64)-1)
|- extent_fiemap(start=0 len=(u64)-1)
   |- get_extent_skip_holes(start=0 len=64k)
   |  |- btrfs_get_extent_fiemap(start=0 len=64k)
   |     |- btrfs_get_extent(start=0 len=64k)
   |        |  Found on-disk (ino, EXTENT_DATA, 0)
   |        |- add_extent_mapping()
   |        |- Return (em->start=0, len=16k)
   |
   |- fiemap_fill_next_extent(logic=0 phys=X len=16k)
   |
   |- get_extent_skip_holes(start=0 len=64k)
   |  |- btrfs_get_extent_fiemap(start=0 len=64k)
   |     |- btrfs_get_extent(start=16k len=48k)
   |        |  Found on-disk (ino, EXTENT_DATA, 16k)
   |        |- add_extent_mapping()
   |        |  |- try_merge_map()
   |        |     Merge with previous em start=0 len=16k
   |        |     resulting em start=0 len=32k
   |        |- Return (em->start=0, len=32K)    << Merged result
   |- Stripe off the unrelated range (0~16K) of return em
   |- fiemap_fill_next_extent(logic=16K phys=X+16K len=16K)
      ^^^ Causing split fiemap extent.

And since in add_extent_mapping(), em is already merged, in next
fiemap() call, we will get merged result.

[FIX]
Here we introduce a new structure, fiemap_cache, which records previous
fiemap extent.

And will always try to merge current fiemap_cache result before calling
fiemap_fill_next_extent().
Only when we failed to merge current fiemap extent with cached one, we
will call fiemap_fill_next_extent() to submit cached one.

So by this method, we can merge all fiemap extents.

It can also be done in fs/ioctl.c, however the problem is if
fieinfo->fi_extents_max == 0, we have no space to cache previous fiemap
extent.
So I choose to merge it in btrfs.
