    btrfs: separate out the eb and extent state leak helpers

    [ Upstream commit a40246e8afc0af3ffdee21854fb755c9364b8346 ]

    Currently we have the add/del functions generic so that we can use them
    for both extent buffers and extent states.  We want to separate this
    code however, so separate these helpers into per-object helpers in
    anticipation of the split.

This is another case when a patch that's not fixing anything nor a
dependency is taken from a series that in the end is only cleanups.
Isn't there supposed to be some human oversight over the patches that
are then sent as autosel?

I think the number of false positives is too high and this means I have
to spend more time on the autosel patches, though majority of them have
some impact when backporting.

Would it make sense to remove fs/btrfs/ from autosel?
