Pages passed to __extent_writepage() are always locked, but they may be locked by different functions. There are two types of locked page for __extent_writepage(): - Page locked by plain lock_page() It should not have any subpage::writers count. Can be unlocked by unlock_page(). This is the most common locked page for __extent_writepage() called inside extent_write_cache_pages() or extent_write_full_page(). Rarer cases include the @locked_page from extent_write_locked_range(). - Page locked by lock_delalloc_pages() There is only one caller, all pages except @locked_page for extent_write_locked_range(). In this case, we have to call subpage helper to handle the case. So here we introduce a helper, btrfs_page_unlock_writer(), to allow __extent_writepage() to unlock different locked pages. And since for all other callers of __extent_writepage() their pages are ensured to be locked by lock_page(), also add an extra check for epd::extent_locked to unlock such pages directly.

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.
