When dropping extent maps for a range, through btrfs_drop_extent_cache(),
if we find an extent map that starts before our target range and/or ends
before the target range, and we are not able to allocate extent maps for
splitting that extent map, then we don't fail and simply remove the entire
extent map from the inode's extent map tree.
This is generally fine, because in case anyone needs to access the extent
map, it can just load it again later from the respective file extent
item(s) in the subvolume btree. However, if that extent map is new and is
in the list of modified extents, then a fast fsync will miss the parts of
the extent that were outside our range (that needed to be split),
therefore not logging them. Fix that by marking the inode for a full
fsync. This issue was introduced after removing BUG_ON()s triggered when
the split extent map allocations failed, done by commit

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.
