Btrfs: fix repeated delalloc work allocation

Miao Xie · Josef Bacik · commit 1eafa6c73791 · 2013-01-24T12:51:27.000-05:00
btrfs_start_delalloc_inodes() locks the delalloc_inodes list, fetches the
first inode, unlocks the list, triggers btrfs_alloc_delalloc_work/
btrfs_queue_worker for this inode, and then it locks the list, checks the
head of the list again. But because we don't delete the first inode that it
deals with before, it will fetch the same inode. As a result, this function
allocates a huge amount of btrfs_delalloc_work structures, and OOM happens.

Fix this problem by splice this delalloc list.
