Filipe Manana 2c8f5e8cdf btrfs: remove leftover setting of EXTENT_UPTODATE state in an inode's io_tree 
We don't need to set the EXTENT_UPDATE bit in an inode's io_tree to mark a
range as uptodate, we rely on the pages themselves being uptodate - page
reading is not triggered for already uptodate pages. Recently we removed
most use of the EXTENT_UPTODATE for buffered IO with commit 52b029f427
("btrfs: remove unnecessary EXTENT_UPTODATE state in buffered I/O path"),
but there were a few leftovers, namely when reading from holes and
successfully finishing read repair.

These leftovers are unnecessarily making an inode's tree larger and deeper,
slowing down searches on it. So remove all the leftovers.

This change is part of a patchset that has the goal to make performance
better for applications that use lseek's SEEK_HOLE and SEEK_DATA modes to
iterate over the extents of a file. Two examples are the cp program from
coreutils 9.0+ and the tar program (when using its --sparse / -S option).
A sample test and results are listed in the changelog of the last patch
in the series:

  1/9 btrfs: remove leftover setting of EXTENT_UPTODATE state in an inode's io_tree
  2/9 btrfs: add an early exit when searching for delalloc range for lseek/fiemap
  3/9 btrfs: skip unnecessary delalloc searches during lseek/fiemap
  4/9 btrfs: search for delalloc more efficiently during lseek/fiemap
  5/9 btrfs: remove no longer used btrfs_next_extent_map()
  6/9 btrfs: allow passing a cached state record to count_range_bits()
  7/9 btrfs: update stale comment for count_range_bits()
  8/9 btrfs: use cached state when looking for delalloc ranges with fiemap
  9/9 btrfs: use cached state when looking for delalloc ranges with lseek

README 

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
