Btrfs: clear the extent uptodate bits during parent transid failures
If btrfs reads a block and finds a parent transid mismatch, it clears the uptodate flags on the extent buffer, and the pages inside it. But we only clear the uptodate bits in the state tree if the block straddles more than one page. This is from an old optimization from to reduce contention on the extent state tree. But it is buggy because the code that retries a read from a different copy of the block is going to find the uptodate state bits set and skip the IO. The end result of the bug is that we'll never actually read the good copy (if there is one). The fix here is to always clear the uptodate state bits, which is safe because this code is only called when the parent transid fails. Signed-off-by: Chris Mason <chris.mason@oracle.com>
