btrfs: Rename btrfs_join_transaction_nolock
This function is used only during the final phase of freespace cache
writeout. This is necessary since using the plain btrfs_join_transaction
api is deadlock prone. The deadlock looks like:
T1:
btrfs_commit_transaction
commit_cowonly_roots
btrfs_write_dirty_block_groups
btrfs_wait_cache_io
__btrfs_wait_cache_io
btrfs_wait_ordered_range <-- Triggers ordered IO for freespace
inode and blocks transaction commit
until freespace cache writeout
T2: <-- after T1 has triggered the writeout
finish_ordered_fn
btrfs_finish_ordered_io
btrfs_join_transaction <--- this would block waiting for current
transaction to commit, but since trans
commit is waiting for this writeout to
finish
The special purpose functions prevents it by simply skipping the "wait
for writeout" since it's guaranteed the transaction won't proceed until
we are done.
