In a pathological scenario where we are trying to bunmapi a single extent in which every other block is shared, it's possible that trying to unmap the entire large extent in a single transaction can generate so many EFIs that we overflow the transaction reservation. Therefore, use a heuristic to guess at the number of blocks we can safely unmap from a reflink file's data fork in an single transaction. This should prevent problems such as the log head slamming into the tail and ASSERTs that trigger because we've exceeded the transaction reservation. Note that since bunmapi can fail to unmap the entire range, we must also teach the deferred unmap code to roll into a new transaction whenever we get low on reservation. Signed-off-by: Darrick J.

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. 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.
