    Btrfs: cleanup error handling in inode.c

merged into 2.6.38.4

I'm on a btrfs filesystem that has been used for some time. Let's say nine 
months. Very recently I noticed performance getting worse and worse.
Most of the time it feels as if the system is just busy with iowait.
Write and read performance during random access is mostly around 2MB/s,
sometimes 1MB/s or slower. It's better for big files which can be read with about
6-9MB/s. The disk is a reasonably recent SATA disk (WDC_WD3200BEVT) so 30MB/s
or 40MB/s linear reading should not be a problem.

rootfs                291G  242G   35G  88% /

I tried  btrfs filesystem defragment -v / but did not notice any improvement 
after that.

Is this a known phenomenon? :-)
