Qu Wenruo bc2dbc4983 btrfs: avoid page_lockend underflow in btrfs_punch_hole_lock_range()
[BUG]
When running btrfs/004 with 4K fs block size and 64K page size,
sometimes fsstress workload can take 100% CPU for a while, but not long
enough to trigger a 120s hang warning.

[CAUSE]
When such 100% CPU usage happens, btrfs_punch_hole_lock_range() is
always in the call trace.

One example when this problem happens, the function
btrfs_punch_hole_lock_range() got the following parameters:

  lock_start = 4096, lockend = 20469

Then we calculate @page_lockstart by rounding up lock_start to page
boundary, which is 64K (page size is 64K).

For @page_lockend, we round down the value towards page boundary, which
result 0.  Then since we need to pass an inclusive end to
filemap_range_has_page(), we subtract 1 from the rounded down value,
resulting in (u64)-1.

In the above case, the range is inside the same page, and we do not even
need to call filemap_range_has_page(), not to mention to call it with
(u64)-1 at the end.

This behavior will cause btrfs_punch_hole_lock_range() to busy loop
waiting for irrelevant range to have its pages dropped.

[FIX]
Calculate @page_lockend by just rounding down @lockend, without
decreasing the value by one.  So @page_lockend will no longer overflow.

Then exit early if @page_lockend is no larger than @page_lockstart.
As it means either the range is inside the same page, or the two pages
are adjacent already.

Finally only decrease @page_lockend when calling filemap_range_has_page().

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 reStructuredText 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.
