This function wraps the optimisation implemented by d7396f07358a,
however this optimisation is really used in only one place -
btrfs_search_slot. Just open code the optimisation and also add a
comment explaining how it works since it's not clear just by looking
at the code - the key point here is it depends on an internal invariant
that BTRFS' btree provides, namely intermediate pointers always contain
the key at slot0 at the child node. So in the case of exact match we
can safely assume that the given key will always be in slot 0 on lower
levels.

Furthermore this results in a reduction of btrfs_search_slot's size:

./scripts/bloat-o-meter ctree.orig fs/btrfs/ctree.o
add/remove: 0/0 grow/shrink: 0/1 up/down: 0/-75 (-75)
Function                                     old     new   delta
btrfs_search_slot                           2783    2708     -75
Total: Before=50423, After=50348, chg -0.15%

One nit though:

I actually find:
			ret = prev_cmp = brtfs_bin_search(b, key, &slot);

a bit more readable in this case.

True, AFAIK David is not a fan of multiple assignments on the same line ;)

Yes I remember him saying something like this.

I can point you to the kernel coding style any number of times:

https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/process/coding-style.html#indentation

"Don’t put multiple assignments on a single line either. Kernel coding
 style is super simple. Avoid tricky expressions."
