Hello,

kernel test robot noticed a -18.0% regression of stress-ng.link.ops_per_sec on:


commit: 8d993618350c86da11cb408ba529c13e83d09527 ("btrfs: migrate get_eb_page_index() and get_eb_offset_in_page() to folios")
https://git.kernel.org/cgit/linux/kernel/git/next/linux-next.git master

Unfortunatelly the conversion to folios adds a lot of assembly code and
we can't rely on constants like PAGE_SIZE anymore. The calculations in
extent buffer members are therefore slower, 18% is a lot but within my
expected range for metadta-only operations.

This could be improved by caching some values, like folio_size, so it's
a dereference and not a calculation of "PAGE_SIZE << folio_order" with
conditionals around.

Yep, caching the folio size is also on my todo list.

I'm pretty happy to add that, but it may still be slower than handling a fixed PAGE_SIZE, I'm not sure how much it would improve.

Thanks,
Qu
