<title>devpts: return NULL pts 'priv' entry for non-devpts nodes</title>

<content type='text'>
In commit 8ead9dd54716 ("devpts: more pty driver interface cleanups") I
made devpts_get_priv() just return the dentry-&gt;fs_data directly.  And
because I thought it wouldn't happen, I added a warning if you ever saw
a pts node that wasn't on devpts.

And no, that warning never triggered under any actual real use, but you
can trigger it by creating nonsensical pts nodes by hand.

So just revert the warning, and make devpts_get_priv() return NULL for
that case like it used to.

If can_overcommit() in btrfs_calc_reclaim_metadata_size() returns true,
btrfs_async_reclaim_metadata_space() will not reclaim metadata space, just
return directly and also forget to wake up process which are waiting for
their tickets, so these processes will wait endlessly.

Fstests case generic/172 with mount option "-o compress=lzo" have revealed
this bug in my test machine. Here if we have tickets to handle, we must
handle them first.

Qgroup function may overwrite the saved error 'err' with 0
in case quota is not enabled, and this ends up with a
endless loop in balance because we keep going back to balance
the same block group.

It really should use 'ret' instead.

Suppose you have the following tree in snap1 on a file system mounted with -o
inode_cache so that inode numbers are recycled

└── [    258]  a
    └── [    257]  b

and then you remove b, rename a to c, and then re-create b in c so you have the
following tree

└── [    258]  c
    └── [    257]  b

and then you try to do an incremental send you will hit

ASSERT(pending_move == 0);

in process_all_refs().  This is because we assume that any recycling of inodes
will not have a pending change in our path, which isn't the case.  This is the
case for the DELETE side, since we want to remove the old file using the old
path, but on the create side we could have a pending move and need to do the
normal pending rename dance.  So remove this ASSERT() and put a comment about
why we ignore pending_move.  Thanks,
