Subject: [PATCH v4 02/34] ext4: check the extent status again before inserting delalloc block

From: Zhang Yi <[email protected]>

Now we lookup extent status entry without holding the i_data_sem before
inserting delalloc block, it works fine in buffered write path and
because it holds i_rwsem and folio lock, and the mmap path holds folio
lock, so the found extent locklessly couldn't be modified concurrently.
But it could be raced by fallocate since it allocate block whitout
holding i_rwsem and folio lock.

ext4_page_mkwrite() ext4_fallocate()
block_page_mkwrite()
ext4_da_map_blocks()
//find hole in extent status tree
ext4_alloc_file_blocks()
ext4_map_blocks()
//allocate block and unwritten extent
ext4_insert_delayed_block()
ext4_da_reserve_space()
//reserve one more block
ext4_es_insert_delayed_block()
//drop unwritten extent and add delayed extent by mistake

Then, the delalloc extent is wrong until writeback, the one more
reserved block can't be release any more and trigger below warning:

EXT4-fs (pmem2): Inode 13 (00000000bbbd4d23): i_reserved_data_blocks(1) not cleared!

Hold i_data_sem in write mode directly can fix the problem, but it's
expansive, we should keep the lockless check and check the extent again
once we need to add an new delalloc block.
