    Btrfs: add a rb_tree to improve performance of ulist search · f7f82b81
    Wang Shilong authored
    
    
    Walking backref tree and btrfs quota rely on ulist very much.
    This patch tries to use rb_tree to speed up search time.
    
    The original code always checks whether an element
    exists before adding a new element, however it costs O(n).
    
    I try to add a rb_tree in the ulist,this is only used to speed up
    search. I also do some measurements with quota enabled.
