This updated version of inband de-duplication has the following features:
1) ONE unified dedup framework.
   Most of its code is hidden quietly in dedup.c and export the minimal
   interfaces for its caller.
   Reviewer and further developer would benefit from the unified
   framework.

2) TWO different back-end with different trade-off
   One is the improved version of previous Fujitsu in-memory only dedup.
   The other one is enhanced dedup implementation from Liu Bo.
   Changed its tree structure to handle bytenr -> hash search for
   deleting hash, without the hideous data backref hack.

3) Support compression with dedupe
   Now dedupe can work with compression.
   Means that, a dedupe miss case can be compressed, and dedupe hit case
   can also reuse compressed file extents.

4) Ioctl interface with persist dedup status
   Advised by David, now we use ioctl to enable/disable dedup.

   And we now have dedup status, recorded in the first item of dedup
   tree.
   Just like quota, once enabled, no extra ioctl is needed for next
   mount.

5) Ability to disable dedup for given dirs/files
   It works just like the compression prop method, by adding a new
   xattr.

TODO:
1) Add extent-by-extent comparison for faster but more conflicting algorithm
   Current SHA256 hash is quite slow, and for some old(5 years ago) CPU,
   CPU may even be a bottleneck other than IO.
   But for faster hash, it will definitely cause conflicts, so we need
   extent comparison before we introduce new dedup algorithm.

2) Misc end-user related helpers
   Like handy and easy to implement dedup rate report.
   And method to query in-memory hash size for those "non-exist" users who
   want to use 'dedup enable -l' option but didn't ever know how much
   RAM they have.

Changelog:
v2:
  Totally reworked to handle multiple backends
v3:
  Fix a stupid but deadly on-disk backend bug
  Add handle for multiple hash on same bytenr corner case to fix abort
  trans error
  Increase dedup rate by enhancing delayed ref handler for both backend.
  Move dedup_add() to run_delayed_ref() time, to fix abort trans error.
  Increase dedup block size up limit to 8M.
v4:
  Add dedup prop for disabling dedup for given files/dirs.
  Merge inmem_search() and ondisk_search() into generic_search() to save
  some code
  Fix another delayed_ref related bug.
  Use the same mutex for both inmem and ondisk backend.
  Move dedup_add() back to btrfs_finish_ordered_io() to increase dedup
  rate.
v5:
  Reuse compress routine for much simpler dedup function.
  Slightly improved performance due to above modification.
  Fix race between dedup enable/disable
  Fix for false ENOSPC report
v6:
  Further enable/disable race window fix.
  Minor format change according to checkpatch.
v7:
  Fix one concurrency bug with balance.
  Slightly modify return value from -EINVAL to -EOPNOTSUPP for
  btrfs_dedup_ioctl() to allow progs to distinguish unsupported commands
  and wrong parameter.
  Rebased to integration-4.6.
v8:
  Rename 'dedup' to 'dedupe'.
  Add support to allow dedupe and compression work at the same time.
  Fix several balance related bugs. Special thanks to Satoru Takeuchi,
  who exposed most of them.
  Small dedupe hit case performance improvement.
