During my test, i did not hit another WARN_ON in fact.

Let's dig more.

I take a deep look in btrfs_finish_ordered_io(), it won't unset PINNED flag
For an NOCOW extent.

2579         if (test_bit(BTRFS_ORDERED_NOCOW,
&ordered_extent->flags)) {
2580                 BUG_ON(!list_empty(&ordered_extent->list)); /*
Logic error */
2581                 btrfs_ordered_update_i_size(inode, 0, ordered_extent);
2582                 if (nolock)
2583                         trans = btrfs_join_transaction_nolock(root);
2584                 else
2585                         trans = btrfs_join_transaction(root);
2586                 if (IS_ERR(trans)) {
2587                         ret = PTR_ERR(trans);
2588                         trans = NULL;
2589                         goto out;
2590                 }
2591                 trans->block_rsv = &root->fs_info->delalloc_block_rsv;
2592                 ret = btrfs_update_inode_fallback(trans, root, inode);
2593                 if (ret) /* -ENOMEM or corruption */
2594                         btrfs_abort_transaction(trans, root, ret);
2595                 goto out;
------------------------->here we goto out directly,
unpin_extent_cache() won't be called.
2596         }
I don't know why we do something like this...


Previously, i unset PINNED flag directly is a lazy approach, that is
because i think it
dosen't hurt to do so, because we are going to evict that inode, and after
btrfs_invalidatepages() is called, nobody should can still access those pages.


Besides, i think we don't need call btrfs_wait_ordered_extents() in
evicting inode here..
(Expecially after your patch that we remove extent map cache)....


What do you think ^_^
