David Sterba 77b7aad195 Revert "btrfs: balance dirty metadata pages in btrfs_finish_ordered_io" 
This reverts commit e73e81b6d0.

This patch causes a few problems:

- adds latency to btrfs_finish_ordered_io
- as btrfs_finish_ordered_io is used for free space cache, generating
  more work from btrfs_btree_balance_dirty_nodelay could end up in the
  same workque, effectively deadlocking

[<0>] ret_from_fork+0x24/0x30
[<0>] 0xffffffffffffffff

Transaction commit will wait on the freespace cache:

And then writepages ends up waiting on transaction commit:

[<0>] kthread+0xf5/0x130
[<0>] ret_from_fork+0x24/0x30
[<0>] 0xffffffffffffffff

Eventually, we have every process in the system waiting on
balance_dirty_pages(), and nobody is able to make progress on page
writeback.

The original patch tried to fix an OOM condition, that happened on 4.4 but no
success reproducing that on later kernels (4.19 and 4.20). This is more likely
a problem in OOM itself.

README 

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
