Btrfs: flush all dirty inodes if writeback can not start

Browse source

We may try to flush some dirty pages when there is no enough space to reserve.
But it is possible that this operation fails, in order to get enough space to
reserve successfully, we will sync all the delalloc file. This operation is
safe, we needn't worry about the case that the filesystem goes from r/w to r/o.
because the filesystem should guarantee all the dirty pages have been written
into the disk after it becomes readonly, so the sync operation will do nothing
if the filesystem is already readonly. Though it may waste lots of time,
as a corner case, we needn't care.
