btrfs: introduce tickets_id to determine whether asynchronous metadata reclaim work makes progress
In btrfs_async_reclaim_metadata_space(), we use ticket's address to
determine whether asynchronous metadata reclaim work is making progress.
ticket = list_first_entry(&space_info->tickets,
struct reserve_ticket, list);
if (last_ticket == ticket) {
flush_state++;
} else {
last_ticket = ticket;
flush_state = FLUSH_DELAYED_ITEMS_NR;
if (commit_cycles)
commit_cycles--;
}
But indeed it's wrong, we should not rely on local variable's address to
do this check, because addresses may be same. In my test environment, I
dd one 168MB file in a 256MB fs, found that for this file, every time
wait_reserve_ticket() called, local variable ticket's address is same,
For above codes, assume a previous ticket's address is addrA, last_ticket
is addrA. Btrfs_async_reclaim_metadata_space() finished this ticket and
wake up it, then another ticket is added, but with the same address addrA,
now last_ticket will be same to current ticket, then current ticket's flush
work will start from current flush_state, not initial FLUSH_DELAYED_ITEMS_NR,
which may result in some enospc issues(I have seen this in my test machine).
