  • The extent_buffers have a very complex interface where
    we use HIGHMEM for metadata and try to cache a kmap mapping
    to access the memory.

    The next commit adds reader/writer locks, and concurrent use
    of this kmap cache would make it even more complex.

    This commit drops the ability to use HIGHMEM with extent buffers,
    and rips out all of the related code.

  • The btrfs macros to access individual struct members on disk were
    sending the same variable to functions that expected different types
    of endianness. This fix explicitly creates a variable of the correct
    type instead of abusing a single variable for mixed purposes.

  • This improves the comments at the top of many functions. It didn't
    dive into the guts of functions because I was trying to
    avoid merging problems with the new allocator and back reference work.

    extent-tree.c and volumes.c were both skipped, and there is definitely
    more work todo in cleaning and commenting the code.
