btrfs: introduce BTRFS_NESTING_LEFT/BTRFS_NESTING_RIGHT
Our lockdep maps are based on rootid+level, however in some cases we will lock adjacent blocks on the same level, namely in searching forward or in split/balance. Because of this lockdep will complain, so we need a separate subclass to indicate to lockdep that these are different locks. lock leaf -> BTRFS_NESTING_NORMAL cow leaf -> BTRFS_NESTING_COW split leaf lock left -> BTRFS_NESTING_LEFT lock right -> BTRFS_NESTING_RIGHT The above graph illustrates the need for this new nesting subclass.
