Traditionally we've had voodoo in btrfs to account for the space that
delayed refs may take up by having a global_block_rsv.  This works most
of the time, except when it doesn't.  We've had issues reported and seen
in production where sometimes the global reserve is exhausted during
transaction commit before we can run all of our delayed refs, resulting
in an aborted transaction.  Because of this voodoo we have equally
dubious flushing semantics around throttling delayed refs which we often
get wrong.

So instead give them their own block_rsv.  This way we can always know
exactly how much outstanding space we need for delayed refs.  This
allows us to make sure we are constantly filling that reservation up
with space, and allows us to put more precise pressure on the enospc
system.  Instead of doing math to see if its a good time to throttle,
the normal enospc code will be invoked if we have a lot of delayed refs
pending, and they will be run via the normal flushing mechanism.

For now the delayed_refs_rsv will hold the reservations for the delayed
refs, the block group updates, and deleting csums.  We could have a
separate rsv for the block group updates, but the csum deletion stuff is
still handled via the delayed_refs so that will stay there.

I see one difference in the way that the space is managed. Essentially
for delayed refs rsv you'll only ever be increasaing the size and
->reserved only when you have to refill. This is opposite to the way
other metadata space is managed i.e by using use_block_rsv which
subtracts ->reserved everytime a block has to be CoW'ed. Why this
difference?

This function is currently used only during transaction start, it seems
to be rather specific to the delayed refs so I'd suggest making it
private to transaction.c

This is also called from a single place in transaction.c so can be made
static.

Again, I think the changelog should mention that one of the major
changes to behavior you do is essentially prioritize delayed refs
refilling over global rsv refilling by "hijacking" all block group
releases to go through __btrfs_block_rsv_release

This change requires a bit more explanation. Now when releasing the
bytes for an inode we execute the additional logic in
__btrfs_block_rsv_release to decide if we need to refill the globalrsv
or delayed refs rsf based on whether delayed refs rsv is full or not.
Before global rsv will be refilled by whatever is the excess amount and
right now if delayed refs rsv is not full delayed refs rsv will be
refilled.

No, the removed part is global_block_rsv and added is delayed_refs_rsv.
