The page might have been locked elsewhere, not with the goal +of starting writeback of the extent buffer, and even by some code other +than btrfs, like page migration for example, so it does not mean the +writeback of the extent buffer was already started by some other task, +so returning a 0 tells the caller (btree_write_cache_pages()) to not +start writeback for the extent buffer. Note that epd might currently have +either no bio, so flush_write_bio() returns 0 (success) or it might have +a bio for another extent buffer with a lower index (logical address). + +Since we return 0 with the EXTENT_BUFFER_WRITEBACK bit set on the +extent buffer and writeback is never started for the extent buffer, +future attempts to writeback the extent buffer will hang forever waiting +on that bit to be cleared, since it can only be cleared after writeback +completes. Such hang is reported with a trace like the following: + + [49887.347053] INFO: task btrfs-transacti:1752 blocked for more than 122 seconds. + [49887.347059] Not tainted 5.2.13-gentoo #2 + [49887.347060] "echo 0 > /proc/sys/kernel/hung_task_timeout_secs" disables this message. + [49887.347062] btrfs-transacti D 0 1752 2 0x80004000 + [49887.347064] Call Trace: + [49887.347069] ? __schedule+0x265/0x830 + [49887.347071] ? bit_wait+0x50/0x50 + [49887.347072] ? bit_wait+0x50/0x50 + [49887.347074] schedule+0x24/0x90 + [49887.347075] io_schedule+0x3c/0x60 + [49887.347077] bit_wait_io+0x8/0x50 + [49887.347079] __wait_on_bit+0x6c/0x80 + [49887.347081] ? __lock_release.isra.29+0x155/0x2d0 + [49887.347083] out_of_line_wait_on_bit+0x7b/0x80 + [49887.347084] ? var_wake_function+0x20/0x20 + [49887.347087] lock_extent_buffer_for_io+0x28c/0x390 + [49887.347089] btree_write_cache_pages+0x18e/0x340 + [49887.347091] do_writepages+0x29/0xb0 + [49887.347093] ? kmem_cache_free+0x132/0x160 + [49887.347095] ? convert_extent_bit+0x544/0x680 + [49887.347097] filemap_fdatawrite_range+0x70/0x90 + [49887.347099] btrfs_write_marked_extents+0x53/0x120 + [49887.347100] btrfs_write_and_wait_transaction.isra.4+0x38/0xa0 + [49887.347102] btrfs_commit_transaction+0x6bb/0x990 + [49887.347103] ? start_transaction+0x33e/0x500 + [49887.347105] transaction_kthread+0x139/0x15c + +So fix this by not overwriting the return value (ret) with the result +from flush_write_bio().
