There are no more users of btrfs_next_extent_map(), the previous patch
in the series ("btrfs: search for delalloc more efficiently during
lseek/fiemap") removed the last usage of the function, so delete it.
This change is part of a patchset that has the goal to make performance
better for applications that use lseek's SEEK_HOLE and SEEK_DATA modes to
iterate over the extents of a file. Two examples are the cp program from
coreutils 9.0+ and the tar program (when using its --sparse / -S option).
A sample test and results are listed in the changelog of the last patch
in the series:
1/9 btrfs: remove leftover setting of EXTENT_UPTODATE state in an inode's io_tree
2/9 btrfs: add an early exit when searching for delalloc range for lseek/fiemap
3/9 btrfs: skip unnecessary delalloc searches during lseek/fiemap
4/9 btrfs: search for delalloc more efficiently during lseek/fiemap
5/9 btrfs: remove no longer used btrfs_next_extent_map()
6/9 btrfs: allow passing a cached state record to count_range_bits()
7/9 btrfs: update stale comment for count_range_bits()
8/9 btrfs: use cached state when looking for delalloc ranges with fiemap
9/9 btrfs: use cached state when looking for delalloc ranges with lseek

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.
