Andreas Gruenbacher e74c98ca2d gfs2: Revert "Fix loop in gfs2_rbm_find"
This reverts commit 2d29f6b96d.

It turns out that the fix can lead to a ~20 percent performance regression
in initial writes to the page cache according to iozone.  Let's revert this
for now to have more time for a proper fix.

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.
