Currently if we fail to lock a range we'll return the start of the range that we failed to lock. We'll then search down to this range and wait on any extent states in this range. However we can avoid this search altogether if we simply cache the extent_state that had the contention. We can pass this into wait_extent_bit() and start from that extent_state without doing the search. In the most optimistic case we can avoid all searches, more likely we'll avoid the initial search and have to perform the search after we wait on the failed state, or worst case we must search both times which is what currently happens.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
