Hi everyone,

I've updated the integration-test branch to use this code instead.  It
is a shiny new reader/writer lock built around rw spinlocks.  I've
removed all the adaptive spinning and started trusting the hints btrfs
already has about when blocks should block or spin.

I tested with lockdep and looks like I've got a bug in btrfs_next_leaf's
lockdep handling.  So, please don't run this code with
CONFIG_DEBUG_LOCK_ALLOC turned on.  The bug is only in lockdep mode, so
we're fine with it off.

I'll fix it up in the morning.

Ok, I've rebased the btrfs integration-test branch to include fixes for
the lockdep problems.  I've also adapted Tejun's lockdep class patch to
the new code.  With this setup I'm not getting lockdep warnings, but I'm
always looking for more bug reports.


My fs_mark test look strange. As I can't make sense of it and don't have
much time today to investigate, I just paste them here:

fs_mark with b249e55006c87f (pre-r/w-lock):

Please note the different fs usage after a single fs_mark run with
the same parameters (fs_mark  -d  /mnt/fsm  -D  512  -t  16  -n  4096
-s  51200  -L5  -S0).
Maybe fs_mark just have some problems with accounting when running
in multiple threads.
