Initially we preallocate btrfs_subpage structure in the main loop of
alloc_extent_buffer().
But later commit fbca46eb46 ("btrfs: make nodesize >= PAGE_SIZE case
to reuse the non-subpage routine") has made sure we only go subpage
routine if our nodesize is smaller than PAGE_SIZE.
This means for that case, we only need to allocate the subpage structure
once anyway.
So this patch would make the preallocation out of the main loop. This
would slightly reduce the workload when we hold the page lock, and make
code a little easier to read.

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 Restructured Text 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.
