H A Duuid-tree.cf98de9b9 Mon Aug 04 13:37:21 CDT 2014 Filipe Manana <fdmanana@suse.com> Btrfs: make btrfs_search_forward return with nodes unlocked

None of the uses of btrfs_search_forward() need to have the path
nodes (level >= 1) read locked, only the leaf needs to be locked
while the caller processes it. Therefore make it return a path
with all nodes unlocked, except for the leaf.

This change is motivated by the observation that during a file
fsync we repeatdly call btrfs_search_forward() and process the
returned leaf while upper nodes of the returned path (level >= 1)
are read locked, which unnecessarily blocks other tasks that want
to write to the same fs/subvol btree.
Therefore instead of modifying the fsync code to unlock all nodes
with level >= 1 immediately after calling btrfs_search_forward(),
change btrfs_search_forward() to do it, so that it benefits all
callers.
