Subject: btrfs: move out now unused BG from the reclaim list
From: Naohiro Aota <naota@xxxxxxxxx>
commit a9f189716cf15913c453299d72f69c51a9b0f86b upstream.
An unused block group is easy to remove to free up space and should be
reclaimed fast. Such block group can often already be a target of the
reclaim process. As we check list_empty(&bg->bg_list), we keep it in the
reclaim list. That block group is never reclaimed until the file system
is filled e.g. up to 75%.
Instead, we can move unused block group to the unused list and delete it
fast.
