btrfs: enable large data folio support under CONFIG_BTRFS_EXPERIMENTAL
With all the preparation patches already merged, it's pretty easy to
enable large data folios:
- Remove the ASSERT() on folio size in btrfs_end_repair_bio()
- Add a helper to properly set the max folio order
Currently due to several call sites that are fetching the bitmap
content directly into an unsigned long, we can only support
BITS_PER_LONG blocks for each bitmap.
- Call the helper when reading/creating an inode
The support has the following limitations:
- No large folios for data reloc inode
The relocation code still requires page sized folio.
But it's not that hot nor common compared to regular buffered ios.
Will be improved in the future.
- Requires CONFIG_BTRFS_EXPERIMENTAL
- Will require all folio related operations to check if it needs the
extra btrfs_subpage structure
Now any folio larger than block size will need btrfs_subpage structure
handling.
Unfortunately I do not have a physical machine for performance test, but
if everything goes like XFS/EXT4, it should mostly bring single digits
percentage performance improvement in the real world.
Although I believe there are still quite some optimizations to be done,
let's focus on testing the current large data folio support first.
