btrfs: fix double accounting race when extent_writepage_io() failed
[BUG]
If submit_one_sector() failed inside extent_writepage_io() for sector
size < page size cases (e.g. 4K sector size and 64K page size), then
we can hit double ordered extent accounting error.
This should be very rare, as submit_one_sector() only fails when we
failed to grab the extent map, and such extent map should exist inside
the memory and has been pinned.
[CAUSE]
For example we have the following folio layout:
0 4K 32K 48K 60K 64K
|//| |//////| |///|
Where |///| is the dirty range we need to writeback. The 3 different
dirty ranges are submitted for regular COW.
Now we hit the following sequence:
- submit_one_sector() returned 0 for [0, 4K)
- submit_one_sector() returned 0 for [32K, 48K)
- submit_one_sector() returned error for [60K, 64K)
- btrfs_mark_ordered_io_finished() called for the whole folio
This will mark the following ranges as finished:
* [0, 4K)
* [32K, 48K)
Both ranges have their IO already submitted, this cleanup will
lead to double accounting.
* [60K, 64K)
That's the correct cleanup.
The only good news is, this error is only theoretical, as the target
extent map is always pinned, thus we should directly grab it from
memory, other than reading it from the disk.
[FIX]
Instead of calling btrfs_mark_ordered_io_finished() for the whole folio
range, which can touch ranges we should not touch, instead
move the error handling inside extent_writepage_io().
So that we can cleanup exact sectors that ought to be submitted but failed.
This provides much more accurate cleanup, avoiding the double accounting.
