Btrfs: fallback on uncompressed io if compressed io fails
Currently compressed IO does not deal with not having its entire extent able to
be allocated. So if we have enough free space to allocate for the extent, but
its not contiguous, it will fail spectacularly. This patch fixes this by
falling back on uncompressed IO which lets us spread the delalloc extent across
multiple extents. I tested this by making us randomly think the reservation had
failed to make it fallback on the uncompressed io way and it seemed to work
fine. Thanks,
