[ Upstream commit a7d16d9a07bbcb7dcd5214a1bea75c808830bc0d ] This is a long time leftover from when I originally added the free space inode, the point was to catch cases where we weren't honoring the NOCOW flag. However there exists a race with relocation, if we allocate our free space inode in a block group that is about to be relocated, we could trigger the COW path before the relocation has the opportunity to find the extents and delete the free space cache. In production where we have auto-relocation enabled we're seeing this WARN_ON_ONCE() around 5k times in a 2 week period, so not super common but enough that it's at the top of our metrics. We're properly handling the error here, and with us phasing out v1 space cache anyway just drop the WARN_ON_ONCE.

Linux kernel ============ There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at: https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/ There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
