btrfs: report exact callsite where transaction abort occurs

Browse source

WARN is called from a single location and all bugreports say that's in
super.c __btrfs_abort_transaction. This is slightly confusing as we'd
rather want to know the exact callsite. Whereas this information is
printed in the syslog below the stacktrace, this requires further look
and we usually see only the headline from WARNING.

Moving the WARN into the macro has to inline some code and increases
code by a few kilobytes:

  text    data     bss     dec     hex filename
835481   20305   14120  869906   d4612 btrfs.ko.before
842883   20305   14120  877308   d62fc btrfs.ko.after

The delta is +7k (130+ calls), measured on 3.19 x86_64, distro config.
The increase is not small and could lead to worse icache use. The code
is on error/exit paths that can be recognized by compiler as cold and
moved out of the way so the impact is speculated to be low, if
measurable at all.
