David Jeffery 3db2776d9f dm snapshot: improve performance by switching out_of_order_list to rbtree
copy_complete()'s processing of out_of_order_list can result in
quadratic complexity in the worst case.  As such it was the source of
consuming too much cpu and the source of significant loss in
performance.

Fix this by converting out_of_order_list to an rbtree.  This improved
a dm-snapshot test copy workload from 32 seconds to 4 seconds.

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.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.

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.
