From: Josef Bacik <jbacik@fb.com>

Btrfs has no bounds except memory on the amount of dirty memory that we have in
use for metadata.  Historically we have used a special inode so we could take
advantage of the balance_dirty_pages throttling that comes with using pagecache.
However as we'd like to support different blocksizes it would be nice to not
have to rely on pagecache, but still get the balance_dirty_pages throttling
without having to do it ourselves.

So introduce *METADATA_DIRTY_BYTES and *METADATA_WRITEBACK_BYTES.  These are
zone and bdi_writeback counters to keep track of how many bytes we have in
flight for METADATA.  We need to count in bytes as blocksizes could be
percentages of pagesize.  We simply convert the bytes to number of pages where
it is needed for the throttling.

Also introduce NR_METADATA_BYTES so we can keep track of the total amount of
pages used for metadata on the system.  This is also needed so things like dirty
throttling know that this is dirtyable memory as well and easily reclaimed.

Please add here something like: "Warning: These counters will overflow on
32-bit machines if we ever have more than 2G of metadata on such machine!
But kernel won't be able to address that easily either so it should not be
a real issue."

This is wrong. The per-cpu counters are stored in s8 so you cannot just
bump the threshold. I would just ignore the PCP counters for metadata (I
don't think they are that critical for performance for metadata tracking)
and add to the comment I've suggested above: "Also note that updates to
these counters won't be batched using per-cpu counters since the updates
are generally larger than the counter threshold."
