btrfs: introduce support for huge folios
With all the previous preparations, it's finally time to enable the
huge folio support.
- The max folio size
Here we define BTRFS_MAX_FOLIO_SIZE, which is fixed at 2MiB.
This will ensure we have a large enough but not too large folio for
btrfs. This limit applies to all systems regardless of page size.
Then we also define BTRFS_MAX_BLOCKS_PER_FOLIO, which depends on
CONFIG_BTRFS_EXPERIMENTAL.
If it's an experimental build, BTRFS_MAX_BLOCKS_PER_FOLIO is 512,
otherwise it's BITS_PER_LONG.
The filemap max order will be calculated using both
BTRFS_MAX_FOLIO_SIZE and BTRFS_MAX_BLOCKS_PER_FOLIO.
E.g. for 64K page size with 64K fs block size, the limit will be
BTRFS_MAX_FOLIO_SIZE (2M), which limits the filemap max order to 5.
This will be lower than the old order (6), but folios larger than 2M
are rarely any better for IO performance. Meanwhile excessively large
folios can cause other problems like stalling the IO pipeline for too
long.
For 4K page size and 4K fs block size, the limit will be increased to
2M from the old 256K.
This new size is constrained by both BTRFS_MAX_FOLIO_SIZE (2M) and
BTRFS_MAX_BLOCKS_PER_FOLIO (512 * 4K), allowing x86_64 to achieve huge
folio support, and the filemap max order will be 9.
- btrfs_bio_ctrl::submit_bitmap
This will be enlarged to contain BTRFS_MAX_BLOCKS_PER_FOLIO bits, and
this will be on-stack memory.
This will increase on-stack memory usage by 56 bytes compared to the
baseline (before the first patch in the series).
- Local @delalloc_bitmap inside writepage_delalloc()
Unfortunately we cannot afford to handle an allocation error here, thus
again we use on-stack memory.
Thus this will increase on-stack memory usage by 56 bytes again.
So unfortunately this means during the delalloc window, the writeback path
will have +112 bytes on-stack memory usage, and for other cases the
writeback path will have +56 bytes on-stack memory usage.
The +56 bytes (btrfs_bio_ctrl::submit_bitmap) can be removed
after we have reworked the compression submission, so the current
on-stack submit_bitmap is mostly a workaround until then.
