For write, we also reserve some space for COW blocks during updating
the checksum tree, and we calculate the number of blocks by checking
if the number of bytes outstanding that are going to need csums needs
one more block for csum.
When we add these checksum into the checksum tree, we use ordered sums
list.
Every ordered sum contains csums for each sector, and we'll first try
to look up an existing csum item,
a) if we don't yet have a proper csum item, then we need to insert one,
b) or if we find one but the csum item is not big enough, then we need
to extend it.
The point is we'll unlock the whole path and then insert or extend.
So others can hack in and update the tree.
Each insert or extend needs update the tree with COW on, and we may need
to insert/extend for many times.
That means what we've reserved for updating checksum tree is NOT enough
indeed.
The case is even more serious with having several write threads at the
same time, it can end up eating our reserved space quickly and starting
eating globle reserve pool instead.
I don't yet come up with a way to calculate the worse case for updating
csum, but extending the checksum item as much as possible can be helpful
in my test.
The idea behind is that it can reduce the times we insert/extend so that
it saves us precious reserved space.
