Add a per cpu counter that tracks the total number of extent maps that are in extent trees of inodes that belong to fs trees. This is going to be used in an upcoming change that adds a shrinker for extent maps. Only extent maps for fs trees are considered, because for special trees such as the data relocation tree we don't want to evict their extent maps which are critical for the relocation to work, and since those are limited, it's not a concern to have them in memory during the relocation of a block group. Another case are extent maps for free space cache inodes, which must always remain in memory, but those are limited (there's only one per free space cache inode, which means one per block group).

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 reStructuredText 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.
