mainlining shenanigans
5e388e9581
When the delayed refs for a head are all run, eventually
cleanup_ref_head is called which (in case of deletion) obtains a
reference for the relevant btrfs_space_info struct by querying the bg
for the range. This is problematic because when the last extent of a
bg is deleted a race window emerges between removal of that bg and the
subsequent invocation of cleanup_ref_head. This can result in cache being null
and either a null pointer dereference or assertion failure.

To fix this, introduce a new flag "is_system" to head_ref structs,
which is populated at insertion time. This allows to decouple the
querying for the spaceinfo from querying the possibly deleted bg.

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst 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.
