Josef Bacik b5e6c3e170 btrfs: always wait on ordered extents at fsync time
There's a priority inversion that exists currently with btrfs fsync.  In
some cases we will collect outstanding ordered extents onto a list and
only wait on them at the very last second.  However this "very last
second" falls inside of a transaction handle, so if we are in a lower
priority cgroup we can end up holding the transaction open for longer
than needed, so if a high priority cgroup is also trying to fsync()
it'll see latency.

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.
