There is a indirect recursion which can reach the extent reservation:
btrfs_reserve_extent() <--|
|- do_chunk_alloc() |
|- btrfs_alloc_chunk() |
|- btrfs_insert_item() |
|- btrfs_reserve_extent() <--|
Currently, we're using root->ref_cows to determine whether we should do
chunk prealloc to avoid such loop.
But that's still a hidden trap. Instead of solving it using some hidden
tricks, this patch will make chunk/block group allocation exclusive.
Now if do_chunk_alloc() determines to alloc chunk, it will set a flag in
transaction handle so new call of do_chunk_alloc() will refuse to
allocate new chunk until current chunk allocation finishes.
The chunks get over-allocated by 2M so there's enough space in case the
recursive call asks for a different type of blockgroup.

This commit pulls those portions of the kernel implementation of
delayed refs which are necessary to have them working in user-space.
I've done the following modifications:
1. Replaced all kmem_cache_alloc calls to kmalloc.
2. Removed all locking-related code, since we are single threaded in
userspace.
3. Removed code which deals with data refs - delayed refs in user space
are going to be used only for cowonly trees.

Add a boolean to record whether the extent tree is being re-initialised
in the current transaction. This is going to be needed by the
delayed refs code.

Add includes that let the header files compile or add explicit include
of kerncompat if the uXX types are used.
