btrfs_commit_transaction has the following loop before we commit the
transaction.
do {
// attempt to do some useful stuff and/or sleep
} while (atomic_read(&cur_trans->num_writers) > 1 ||
(should_grow && cur_trans->num_joined != joined));
This is used to prevent from the TRANS_START to get in the way of a
committing transaction. But it does not prevent from TRANS_JOIN, that
is we would do this loop for a long time if some writers JOIN the
current transaction endlessly.
Because we need join the current transaction to do some useful stuff,
we can not block TRANS_JOIN here. So we introduce a external writer
counter, which is used to count the TRANS_USERSPACE/TRANS_START writers.
If the external writer counter is zero, we can break the above loop.
In order to make the code more clear, we don't use enum variant
to define the type of the transaction handle, use bitmask instead.
