We currently use btrfs_check_data_free_space() when allocating space for relocating data extents, but that is not necessary because that function combines btrfs_alloc_data_chunk_ondemand(), which does the actual space reservation, and btrfs_qgroup_reserve_data(). We can use btrfs_alloc_data_chunk_ondemand() directly because we know we do not need to reserve qgroup space since we are dealing with a relocation tree, which can never have qgroups (btrfs_qgroup_reserve_data() does nothing as is_fstree() returns false for a relocation tree). Conversely we can use btrfs_free_reserved_data_space_noquota() directly instead of btrfs_free_reserved_data_space(), since we had no qgroup reservation when allocating space. This change is preparatory work for another patch in this series that makes relocation reserve the exact amount of space it needs to relocate a data block group. The function btrfs_check_data_free_space() has the incovenient of requiring a start offset argument and we will want to be able to allocate space for multiple ranges, which are not consecutive, at once.

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.
