The radix-tree has been superseded by the xarray (https://lwn.net/Articles/745073), this patch converts the btrfs_root::delayed_nodes, the APIs are used in a simple way. First idea is to do xa_insert() but this would require GFP_ATOMIC allocation which we want to avoid if possible. The preload mechanism of radix-tree can be emulated within the xarray API. - xa_reserve() with GFP_NOFS outside of the lock, the reserved entry is inserted atomically at most once - xa_store() under a lock, in case something races in we can detect that and xa_load() returns a valid pointer All uses of xa_load() must check for a valid pointer in case they manage to get between the xa_reserve() and xa_store(), this is handled in btrfs_get_delayed_node(). Otherwise the functionality is equivalent, xarray implements the radix-tree and there should be no performance difference. The patch continues the efforts started in 253bf57555e451 ("btrfs: turn delayed_nodes_tree into an XArray") and fixes the problems with locking and GFP flags 088aea3b97e0ae ("Revert "btrfs: turn delayed_nodes_tree into an XArray"").
