caae78e032 btrfs: move common inode creation code into btrfs_create_new_inode()
All of our inode creation code paths duplicate the calls to
btrfs_init_inode_security() and btrfs_add_link(). Subvolume creation
additionally duplicates property inheritance and the call to
btrfs_set_inode_index(). Fix this by moving the common code into
btrfs_create_new_inode(). This accomplishes a few things at once:

1. It reduces code duplication.

2. It allows us to set up the inode completely before inserting the
   inode item, removing calls to btrfs_update_inode().

3. It fixes a leak of an inode on disk in some error cases. For example,
   in btrfs_create(), if btrfs_new_inode() succeeds, then we have
   inserted an inode item and its inode ref. However, if something after
   that fails (e.g., btrfs_init_inode_security()), then we end the
   transaction and then decrement the link count on the inode. If the
   transaction is committed and the system crashes before the failed
   inode is deleted, then we leak that inode on disk. Instead, this
   refactoring aborts the transaction when we can't recover more
   gracefully.

4. It exposes various ways that subvolume creation diverges from mkdir
   in terms of inheriting flags, properties, permissions, and POSIX
   ACLs, a lot of which appears to be accidental. This patch explicitly
   does _not_ change the existing non-standard behavior, but it makes
   those differences more clear in the code and documents them so that
   we can discuss whether they should be changed.

4b73c55fde btrfs: skip compression property for anything other than files and dirs
The compression property only has effect on regular files and directories
(so that it's propagated to files and subdirectories created inside a
directory). For any other inode type (symlink, fifo, device, socket),
it's pointless to set the compression property because it does nothing
and ends up unnecessarily wasting leaf space due to the pointless xattr
(75 or 76 bytes, depending on the compression value). Symlinks in
particular are very common (for example, I have almost 10k symlinks under
/etc, /usr and /var alone) and therefore it's worth to avoid wasting
leaf space with the compression xattr.

For example, the compression property can end up on a symlink or character
device implicitly, through inheritance from a parent directory

  $ mkdir /mnt/testdir
  $ btrfs property set /mnt/testdir compression lzo

  $ ln -s yadayada /mnt/testdir/lnk
  $ mknod /mnt/testdir/dev c 0 0

Or explicitly like this:

  $ ln -s yadayda /mnt/lnk
  $ setfattr -h -n btrfs.compression -v lzo /mnt/lnk

So skip the compression property on inodes that are neither a regular
file nor a directory.

0e852ab897 btrfs: do not allow compression on nodatacow files
Compression and nodatacow are mutually exclusive. A similar issue was
fixed by commit f37c563bab ("btrfs: add missing check for nocow and
compression inode flags"). Besides ioctl, there is another way to
enable/disable/reset compression directly via xattr. The following
steps will result in a invalid combination.

  $ touch bar
  $ chattr +C bar
  $ lsattr bar
  ---------------C-- bar
  $ setfattr -n btrfs.compression -v zstd bar
  $ lsattr bar
  --------c------C-- bar

To align with the logic in check_fsflags, nocompress will also be
unacceptable after this patch, to prevent mix any compression-related
options with nodatacow.

  $ touch bar
  $ chattr +C bar
  $ lsattr bar
  ---------------C-- bar
  $ setfattr -n btrfs.compression -v zstd bar
  setfattr: bar: Invalid argument
  $ setfattr -n btrfs.compression -v no bar
  setfattr: bar: Invalid argument

When both compression and nodatacow are enabled, then
btrfs_run_delalloc_range prefers nodatacow and no compression happens.

cd31af158b btrfs: export btrfs_set_prop
Make btrfs_set_prop() a non-static function, so that it can be called
from btrfs_ioctl_setflags(). We need btrfs_set_prop() instead of
btrfs_set_prop_trans() so that we can use the transaction which is
already started in the current thread.

262c96a3c3 btrfs: refactor btrfs_set_prop and add btrfs_set_prop_trans
btrfs_set_prop() takes transaction pointer as the first argument,
however in ioctl.c for the purpose of setting the compression property,
we call btrfs_set_prop() with NULL transaction pointer. Down in
the call chain  btrfs_setxattr() starts transaction to update the
attribute and also to update the inode.

So for clarity, create btrfs_set_prop_trans() with no transaction
pointer as argument, in preparation to start transaction here instead of
doing it down the call chain at btrfs_setxattr().

Also now the btrfs_set_prop() is a static function.

7715da84f7 btrfs: merge _btrfs_set_prop helpers
btrfs_set_prop() is a redirect to __btrfs_set_prop() with the
transaction handle equal to NULL.  __btrfs_set_prop() in turn passes
this to do_setxattr() which then transaction is actually created.

Instead merge  __btrfs_set_prop() to btrfs_set_prop(), and update the
caller with NULL argument.

63541927c8 Btrfs: add support for inode properties
This change adds infrastructure to allow for generic properties for
inodes. Properties are name/value pairs that can be associated with
inodes for different purposes. They are stored as xattrs with the
prefix "btrfs."

Properties can be inherited - this means when a directory inode has
inheritable properties set, these are added to new inodes created
under that directory. Further, subvolumes can also have properties
associated with them, and they can be inherited from their parent
subvolume. Naturally, directory properties have priority over subvolume
properties (in practice a subvolume property is just a regular
property associated with the root inode, objectid 256, of the
subvolume's fs tree).

This change also adds one specific property implementation, named
"compression", whose values can be "lzo" or "zlib" and it's an
inheritable property.

The corresponding changes to btrfs-progs were also implemented.
A patch with xfstests for this feature will follow once there's
agreement on this change/feature.

Further, the script at the bottom of this commit message was used to
do some benchmarks to measure any performance penalties of this feature.

Basically the tests correspond to:

Test 1 - create a filesystem and mount it with compress-force=lzo,
then sequentially create N files of 64Kb each, measure how long it took
to create the files, unmount the filesystem, mount the filesystem and
perform an 'ls -lha' against the test directory holding the N files, and
report the time the command took.

Test 2 - create a filesystem and don't use any compression option when
mounting it - instead set the compression property of the subvolume's
root to 'lzo'. Then create N files of 64Kb, and report the time it took.
The unmount the filesystem, mount it again and perform an 'ls -lha' like
in the former test. This means every single file ends up with a property
(xattr) associated to it.

Test 3 - same as test 2, but uses 4 properties - 3 are duplicates of the
compression property, have no real effect other than adding more work
when inheriting properties and taking more btree leaf space.

Test 4 - same as test 3 but with 10 properties per file.

Results (in seconds, and averages of 5 runs each), for different N
numbers of files follow.

The increased latencies with properties are essencialy because of:

*) When creating an inode, we now synchronously write 1 more item
   (an xattr item) for each property inherited from the parent dir
   (or subvolume). This could be done in an asynchronous way such
   as we do for dir intex items (delayed-inode.c), which could help
   reduce the file creation latency;

*) With properties, we now have larger fs trees. For this particular
   test each xattr item uses 75 bytes of leaf space in the fs tree.
   This could be less by using a new item for xattr items, instead of
   the current btrfs_dir_item, since we could cut the 'location' and
   'type' fields (saving 18 bytes) and maybe 'transid' too (saving a
   total of 26 bytes per xattr item) from the btrfs_dir_item type.

Also tried batching the xattr insertions (ignoring proper hash
collision handling, since it didn't exist) when creating files that
inherit properties from their parent inode/subvolume, but the end
results were (surprisingly) essentially the same.
