Subject: [PATCH 5/8] btrfs: wait on uncached block groups on every allocation
 loop

My initial fix for the generic/475 hangs was related to metadata, but
our CI testing uncovered another case where we hang for similar reasons.
We again have a task with a plug that is holding an outstanding request
that is keeping the dm device from finishing it's suspend, and that task
is stuck in the allocator.

This time it is stuck trying to allocate data, but we do not have a
block group that matches the size class.  The larger loop in the
allocator looks like this (simplified of course)

  find_free_extent
    for_each_block_group {
      ffe_ctl->cached == btrfs_block_group_cache_done(bg)
      if (!ffe_ctl->cached)
	ffe_ctl->have_caching_bg = true;
      do_allocation()
	btrfs_wait_block_group_cache_progress();
    }

    if (loop == LOOP_CACHING_WAIT && ffe_ctl->have_caching_bg)
      go search again;

In my earlier fix we were trying to allocate from the block group, but
we weren't waiting for the progress because we were only waiting for the
free space to be >= the amount of free space we wanted.  My fix made it
so we waited for forward progress to be made as well, so we would be
sure to wait.

This time however we did not have a block group that matched our size
class, so what was happening was this

  find_free_extent
    for_each_block_group {
      ffe_ctl->cached == btrfs_block_group_cache_done(bg)
      if (!ffe_ctl->cached)
	ffe_ctl->have_caching_bg = true;
      if (size_class_doesn't_match())
	goto loop;
      do_allocation()
	btrfs_wait_block_group_cache_progress();
  loop:
      release_block_group(block_group);
    }

    if (loop == LOOP_CACHING_WAIT && ffe_ctl->have_caching_bg)
      go search again;

The size_class_doesn't_match() part was true, so we'd just skip this
block group and never wait for caching, and then because we found a
caching block group we'd just go back and do the loop again.  We never
sleep and thus never flush the plug and we have the same deadlock.

Fix the logic for waiting on the block group caching to instead do it
unconditionally when we goto loop.  This takes the logic out of the
allocation step, so now the loop looks more like this

  find_free_extent
    for_each_block_group {
      ffe_ctl->cached == btrfs_block_group_cache_done(bg)
      if (!ffe_ctl->cached)
	ffe_ctl->have_caching_bg = true;
      if (size_class_doesn't_match())
	goto loop;
      do_allocation()
	btrfs_wait_block_group_cache_progress();
  loop:
      if (loop > LOOP_CACHING_NOWAIT && !ffe_ctl->retry_uncached &&
	  !ffe_ctl->cached) {
	 ffe_ctl->retry_uncached = true;
	 btrfs_wait_block_group_cache_progress();
      }

      release_block_group(block_group);
    }

    if (loop == LOOP_CACHING_WAIT && ffe_ctl->have_caching_bg)
      go search again;

This simplifies the logic a lot, and makes sure that if we're hitting
uncached block groups we're always waiting on them at some point.

I ran this through 100 iterations of generic/475, as this particular
case was harder to hit than the previous one.
