At btrfs_put_delayed_ref(), it's pointless to have a WARN_ON() to check if the refcount of the delayed ref is zero. Such check is already done by the refcount_t module and refcount_dec_and_test(), which loudly complains if we try to decrement a reference count that is currently 0. The WARN_ON() dates back to the time when used a regular atomic_t type for the reference counter, before we switched to the refcount_t type. The main goal of the refcount_t type/module is precisely to catch such types of bugs and loudly complain if they happen. This also reduces a bit the module's text size.

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.
