This optimization reduces the average number of comparisons required
from 2*n*log2(n) - 3*n + o(n) to n*log2(n) + 0.37*n + o(n). When n is
sufficiently large, it results in approximately 50% fewer comparisons.
Currently, eytzinger0_sort employs the textbook version of heapsort,
where during the heapify process, each level requires two comparisons
to determine the maximum among three elements. In contrast, the
bottom-up heapsort, during heapify, only compares two children at each
level until reaching a leaf node. Then, it backtracks from the leaf
node to find the correct position. Since heapify typically continues
until very close to the leaf node, the standard heapify requires about
2*log2(n) comparisons, while the bottom-up variant only needs log2(n)
comparisons.
The experimental data presented below is based on an array generated
by get_random_u32().

When a superblock write is silently dropped or it's been modified by
another process we need to know which device it was.

Btree nodes are log structured; thus, we need to emit whiteouts when
we're deleting a key that's been written out to disk.
k->needs_whiteout tracks whether a key will need a whiteout when it's
deleted, and this requires some careful handling; e.g. the key we're
deleting may not have been written out to disk, but it may have
overwritten a key that was - thus we need to carry this flag around on
overwrites.
Invariants:
There may be multiple key for the same position in a given node (because
of overwrites), but only one of them will be a live (non deleted) key,
and only one key for a given position will have the needs_whiteout flag
set.
Additionally, we don't want to carry around whiteouts that need to be
written in the main searchable part of a btree node - btree_iter_peek()
will have to skip past them, and this can lead to an O(n^2) issues when
doing sequential deletions (e.g. inode rm/truncate). So there's a
separate region in the btree node buffer for unwritten whiteouts; these
are merge sorted with the rest of the keys we're writing in the btree
node write path.
The unwritten whiteouts was a later optimization that bch2_sort_keys()
didn't take into account; the unwritten whiteouts area means that we
never have deleted keys with needs_whiteout set in the main searchable
part of a btree node.
That means we can simplify and optimize some sort paths, and eliminate
an assertion that syzbot found:
- Unless we're in the btree node write path, it's always ok to drop
whiteouts when sorting
- When sorting for a btree node write, we drop the whiteout if it's not
from the unwritten whiteouts area, or if it's overwritten by a real
key at the same position.
This completely eliminates some tricky logic for propagating the
needs_whiteout flag: syzbot was able to hit the assertion that checked
that there shouldn't be more than one key at the same pos with
needs_whiteout set, likely due to a combination of flipping on
needs_whiteout on all written keys (they need whiteouts if overwritten),
combined with not always dropping unneeded whiteouts, and the tricky
logic in the sort path for preserving needs_whiteout that wasn't really
needed.

bch2_write_super() was looping over online devices multiple times -
dropping and retaking io_ref each time.
This meant it could race with device removal; it could increment the
sequence number on a device but fail to write it - and then if the
device was re-added, it would get confused the next time around thinking
a superblock write was silently dropped.
Fix this by taking io_ref once, and stashing pointers to online devices
in a darray.

Ancient versions of bcachefs produced packed formats that could
represent keys that our in memory format cannot represent;
bformat_needs_redo() has some tricky shifts to check for this sort of
overflow.

filefrag (and potentially other utilities that call fiemap) sometimes
pass ULONG_MAX as the length. fiemap_prep clamps excessively large
lengths - but the calculation of end can overflow if it occurs before
calling fiemap_prep. When this happens, filefrag assumes it has read to
the end and exits.

The bucket_gens array is a single array allocation (one byte per
bucket), and kernel allocations are still limited to INT_MAX.
Check this limit to avoid failing the bucket_gens array allocation.

bch2_get_next_dev() and bch2_get_next_online_dev() iterate over devices,
dropping and taking refs as they go; we can't access the previous device
(for ca->dev_idx) after we've dropped our ref to it, unless we take
rcu_read_lock() first.

housekeeping_setup() checks cpumask_intersects(present, online) to ensure
that the kernel will have at least one housekeeping CPU after smp_init(),
but this doesn't work if the maxcpus= kernel parameter limits the number of
processors available after bootup.
For example, a kernel with "maxcpus=2 nohz_full=0-2" parameters crashes at
boot time on a virtual machine with 4 CPUs.
Change housekeeping_setup() to use cpumask_first_and() and check that the
returned CPU number is valid and less than setup_max_cpus.
Another corner case is "nohz_full=0" on a machine with a single CPU or with
the maxcpus=1 kernel argument. In this case non_housekeeping_mask is empty
and tick_nohz_full_setup() makes no sense. And indeed, the kernel hits the
WARN_ON(tick_nohz_full_running) in tick_sched_do_timer().
And how should the kernel interpret the "nohz_full=" parameter? It should
be silently ignored, but currently cpulist_parse() happily returns the
empty cpumask and this leads to the same problem.
Change housekeeping_setup() to check cpumask_empty(non_housekeeping_mask)
and do nothing in this case.
