Filipe Manana b4e098a97f btrfs: remove unnecessary leaf free space checks when pushing items
When trying to push items from a leaf into its left and right neighbours,
we lock the left or right leaf, check if it has the required minimum free
space, COW the leaf and then check again if it has the minimum required
free space. This second check is pointless:

1) Most and foremost because it's not needed. We have a write lock on the
   leaf and on its parent node, so no one can come in and change either
   the pre-COW or post-COW version of the leaf for the whole duration of
   the push_leaf_left() and push_leaf_right() calls;

2) The call to btrfs_leaf_free_space() is not trivial, it has a fair
   amount of arithmetic operations and access to fields in the leaf's
   header and items, so it's not very cheap.

So remove the duplicated free space checks.

This change if part of a patchset that is comprised of the following
patches:

  1/6 btrfs: remove unnecessary leaf free space checks when pushing items
  2/6 btrfs: avoid unnecessary COW of leaves when deleting items from a leaf
  3/6 btrfs: avoid unnecessary computation when deleting items from a leaf
  4/6 btrfs: remove constraint on number of visited leaves when replacing extents
  5/6 btrfs: remove useless path release in the fast fsync path
  6/6 btrfs: prepare extents to be logged before locking a log tree path

The last patch in the series has some performance test result in its
changelog.

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.
