From: Liu Bo bo.li.liu@oracle.com Date: Wed, 31 Jan 2018 17:09:13 -0700 Subject: [PATCH] Btrfs: fix unexpected cow in run_delalloc_nocow
Fstests generic/475 provides a way to fail metadata reads while checking if checksum exists for the inode inside run_delalloc_nocow(), and csum_exist_in_range() interprets error (-EIO) as inode having checksum and makes its caller enter the cow path.
In case of free space inode, this ends up with a warning in cow_file_range().
The same problem applies to btrfs_cross_ref_exist() since it may also read metadata in between.
With this, run_delalloc_nocow() bails out when errors occur at the two places.
