Btrfs: Fix streaming read performance with checksumming on
Large streaming reads make for large bios, which means each entry on the list async work queues represents a large amount of data. IO congestion throttling on the device was kicking in before the async worker threads decided a single thread was busy and needed some help. The end result was that a streaming read would result in a single CPU running at 100% instead of balancing the work off to other CPUs. This patch also changes the pre-IO checksum lookup done by reads to work on a per-bio basis instead of a per-page. This results in many extra btree lookups on large streaming reads. Doing the checksum lookup right before bio submit allows us to reuse searches while processing adjacent offsets. Signed-off-by: Chris Mason <chris.mason@oracle.com>
