The full writeback and eofblocks trim operations executed prior to
collapse range are temporary hacks to avoid problems in the extent shift
implementation. The writeback prevents the in-core extent count from
changing due to extent conversions in parts of the file prior to the
collapse target. The eofblocks trim prevents collapse failure due to
attempts to look up delalloc extents on disk for bmapbt mappings.
The full writeback is no longer necessary because the extent shift is
now file offset based. Each time the ilock is dropped and reacquired, we
look up the current extent index based on the file offset where the
previous shift left off. The eofblocks trim is no longer required
because the extent shift mechanism knows how to shift delalloc extents.
Remove the writeback and eofblocks trim from xfs_collapse_file_space().
