Btrfs: improve the delayed inode throttling
The delayed inode code batches up changes to the btree in hopes of doing
them in bulk. As the changes build up, processes kick off worker
threads and wait for them to make progress.
The current code kicks off an async work queue item for each delayed
node, which creates a lot of churn. It also uses a fixed 1 HZ waiting
period for the throttle, which allows us to build a lot of pending
work and can slow down the commit.
This changes us to watch a sequence counter as it is bumped during the
operations. We kick off fewer work items and have each work item do
more work.
