Commit Message

The small allocation helper is implemented in a way that is fairly
tightly integrated to the existing allocation algorithms. It expects
a cntbt cursor beyond the end of the tree, attempts to locate the
last record in the tree and only attempts an AGFL allocation if the
cntbt is empty.

The upcoming generic algorithm doesn't rely on the cntbt processing
of this function. It will only call this function when the cntbt
doesn't have a big enough extent or is empty and thus AGFL
allocation is the only remaining option. Tweak
xfs_alloc_ag_vextent_small() to handle a NULL cntbt cursor and skip
the cntbt logic. This facilitates use by the existing allocation
code and new code that only requires an AGFL allocation attempt.

This looks pretty sensible to me.  What confuses me a bit is that
the patch is much more (good!) refactoring than the actual change.

If you have to respin it maybe split it up, making the actual
behavior change even more obvious.

Otherwise:

The only functional change was basically to check for ccur before using
it and initializing i to zero. It just seemed to make sense to clean up
the surrounding code while there, but I can either split out the
aesthetic cleanup or defer that stuff to the broader rework at the end
of the series (where the cursor stuff just gets ripped out anyways) if
either of those is cleaner..

Yeah, I noticed how trivial the actual change was.  That is why just
doing the cleanup in pass 1 and applying the change in pass 2 might
make it more readbale.  It might also be worth to throw in the use
a goto label instead of long conditionals from your last patch into
that cleanup prep patch.

Ok, I've lifted all of the small mode refactoring (from both this patch
and the last one) into an initial patch. Unless you indicate otherwise,
I've also retained your review tag(s), though you might want to take a
cursory look once the next version lands.
