In a zoned filesystem a once written then freed region is not usable until the underlying zone has been reset. So we need to distinguish such unusable space from usable free space. Therefore we need to introduce the "zone_unusable" field to the block group structure, and "bytes_zone_unusable" to the space_info structure to track the unusable space. Pinned bytes are always reclaimed to the unusable space. But, when an allocated region is returned before using e.g., the block group becomes read-only between allocation time and reservation time, we can safely return the region to the block group. For the situation, this commit introduces "btrfs_add_free_space_unused". This behaves the same as btrfs_add_free_space() on regular filesystem. On zoned filesystems, it rewinds the allocation offset. Because the read-only bytes tracks free but unusable bytes when the block group is read-only, we need to migrate the zone_unusable bytes to read-only bytes when a block group is marked read-only.

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.
