Chris Mason a213501153 Btrfs: Replace the big fs_mutex with a collection of other locks
Extent alloctions are still protected by a large alloc_mutex.
Objectid allocations are covered by a objectid mutex
Other btree operations are protected by a lock on individual btree nodes

Chris Mason 925baeddc5 Btrfs: Start btree concurrency work.
The allocation trees and the chunk trees are serialized via their own
dedicated mutexes.  This means allocation location is still not very
fine grained.

The main FS btree is protected by locks on each block in the btree.  Locks
are taken top / down, and as processing finishes on a given level of the
tree, the lock is released after locking the lower level.

The end result of a search is now a path where only the lowest level
is locked.  Releasing or freeing the path drops any locks held.

Christoph Hellwig df5b5520b2 BTRFS_IOC_TRANS_START should be privilegued
As mentioned in the comment next to it btrfs_ioctl_trans_start can
do bad damage to filesystems and thus should be limited to privilegued
users.

Christoph Hellwig f46b5a66b3 Btrfs: split out ioctl.c
Split the ioctl handling out of inode.c into a file of it's own.
Also fix up checkpatch.pl warnings for the moved code.
