Summary
btrfs: release correct delalloc amount in direct IO write path
Details

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

btrfs: release correct delalloc amount in direct IO write path

Running generic/406 causes the following WARNING in btrfsdestroyinode() which tells there are outstanding extents left.

In btrfsgetblocksdirectwrite(), we reserve a temporary outstanding extents with btrfsdelallocreservemetadata() (or indirectly from btrfsdelallocreservespace(()). We then release the outstanding extents with btrfsdelallocrelease_extents(). However, the "len" can be modified in the COW case, which releases fewer outstanding extents than expected.

Fix it by calling btrfsdelallocrelease_extents() for the original length.

To reproduce the warning, the filesystem should be 1 GiB. It's triggering a short-write, due to not being able to allocate a large extent and instead allocating a smaller one.
