btrfs: Change the expanding write sequence to fix snapshot related bug.
When testing fsstress with snapshot making background, some snapshot
following problem.
Snapshot 270:
inode 323: size 0
Snapshot 271:
inode 323: size 349145
|-------Hole---|---------Empty gap-------|-------Hole-----|
0 122880 172032 349145
Snapshot 272:
inode 323: size 349145
|-------Hole---|------------Data---------|-------Hole-----|
0 122880 172032 349145
The fsstress operation on inode 323 is the following:
write: offset 126832 len 43124
truncate: size 349145
Since the write with offset is consist of 2 operations:
1. punch hole
2. write data
Hole punching is faster than data write, so hole punching in write
and truncate is done first and then buffered write, so the snapshot 271 got
empty gap, which will not pass btrfsck.
To fix the bug, this patch will change the write sequence which will
first punch a hole covering the write end if a hole is needed.
