Qu Wenruo 848c23b78f btrfs: Remove false alert when fiemap range is smaller than on-disk extent
Commit 4751832da9 ("btrfs: fiemap: Cache and merge fiemap extent before
submit it to user") introduced a warning to catch unemitted cached
fiemap extent.

However such warning doesn't take the following case into consideration:

0			4K			8K
|<---- fiemap range --->|
|<----------- On-disk extent ------------------>|

In this case, the whole 0~8K is cached, and since it's larger than
fiemap range, it break the fiemap extent emit loop.
This leaves the fiemap extent cached but not emitted, and caught by the
final fiemap extent sanity check, causing kernel warning.

This patch removes the kernel warning and renames the sanity check to
emit_last_fiemap_cache() since it's possible and valid to have cached
fiemap extent.

Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users.
These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.

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.
