Subject: btrfs: don't reserve space for checksums when writing to nocow files
From: Filipe Manana <fdmanana@xxxxxxxx>
commit feefe1f49d26bad9d8997096e3a200280fa7b1c5 upstream.
Currently when doing a write to a file we always reserve metadata space
for inserting data checksums. However we don't need to do it if we have
a nodatacow file (-o nodatacow mount option or chattr +C) or if checksums
are disabled (-o nodatasum mount option), as in that case we are only
adding unnecessary pressure to metadata reservations.
For example on x86_64, with the default node size of 16K, a 4K buffered
write into a nodatacow file is reserving 655360 bytes of metadata space,
as it's accounting for checksums. After this change, which stops reserving
space for checksums if we have a nodatacow file or checksums are disabled,
we only need to reserve 393216 bytes of metadata.
