Btrfs: fix race between fsync and direct IO writes for prealloc extents When we do a direct IO write against a preallocated extent (fallocate) that does not go beyond the i_size of the inode, we do the write operation without holding the inode's i_mutex (an optimization that landed in commit 38851cc19adb ("Btrfs: implement unlocked dio write")). This allows for a very tiny time window where a race can happen with a concurrent fsync using the fast code path, as the direct IO write path creates first a new extent map (no longer flagged as a prealloc extent) and then it creates the ordered extent, while the fast fsync path first collects ordered extents and then it collects extent maps. This allows for the possibility of the fast fsync path to collect the new extent map without collecting the new ordered extent, and therefore logging an extent item based on the extent map without waiting for the ordered extent to be created and complete. This can result in a situation where after a log replay we end up with an extent not marked anymore as prealloc but it was only partially written (or not written at all), exposing random, stale or garbage data corresponding to the unwritten pages and without any checksums in the csum tree covering the extent's range. This is an extension of what was done in commit de0ee0edb21f ("Btrfs: fix race between fsync and lockless direct IO writes"). So fix this by creating first the ordered extent and then the extent map, so that this way if the fast fsync patch collects the new extent map it also collects the corresponding ordered extent.
