The changelog could be expanded, something like:

btrfs_destroy_delayed_refs always returns 0 so it can be converted to
void. While at it also remove the unnecessary forward declaration in
disk-io.c

Code wise it's ok:

                                       ^^^^^^
nit: It's good practice to also adjust the alignment of following lines.

This change has been sent several times and I give the same answer each
time:

https://lore.kernel.org/linux-btrfs/20190418154913.GO20156@twin.jikos.cz/

"When switching a fuction to return void, please check the whole
callgraph for functions that do not properly handler errors and do
BUG_ON. You won't see errors passed from them so this gives the
impression no error handling is needed in the caller.

This has been sent in the past, so I can point you to the 2nd paragraph
in
https://lore.kernel.org/linux-btrfs/20180815124425.GM24025@twin.jikos.cz/

hint: btrfs_pin_extent"

Okay, reverted back the changes and submitted v3.
