Merge tag 'bcachefs-2024-05-19' of https://evilpiepirate.org/git/bcachefs

Pull bcachefs updates from Kent Overstreet:

 - More safety fixes, primarily found by syzbot

 - Run the upgrade/downgrade paths in nochnages mode. Nochanges mode is
   primarily for testing fsck/recovery in dry run mode, so it shouldn't
   change anything besides disabling writes and holding dirty metadata
   in memory.

   The idea here was to reduce the amount of activity if we can't write
   anything out, so that bringing up a filesystem in "super ro" mode
   would be more lilkely to work for data recovery - but norecovery is
   the correct option for this.

 - btree_trans->locked; we now track whether a btree_trans has any btree
   nodes locked, and this is used for improved assertions related to
   trans_unlock() and trans_relock(). We'll also be using it for
   improving how we work with lockdep in the future: we don't want
   lockdep to be tracking individual btree node locks because we take
   too many for lockdep to track, and it's not necessary since we have a
   cycle detector.

 - Trigger improvements that are prep work for online fsck

 - BTREE_TRIGGER_check_repair; this regularizes how we do some repair
   work for extents that goes with running triggers in fsck, and fixes
   some subtle issues with transaction restarts there.

 - bch2_snapshot_equiv() has now been ripped out of fsck.c; snapshot
   equivalence classes are for when snapshot deletion leaves behind
   redundant snapshot nodes, but snapshot deletion now cleans this up
   right away, so the abstraction doesn't need to leak.

 - Improvements to how we resume writing to the journal in recovery. The
   code for picking the new place to write when reading the journal is
   greatly simplified and we also store the position in the superblock
   for when we don't read the journal; this means that we preserve more
   of the journal for list_journal debugging.

 - Improvements to sysfs btree_cache and btree_node_cache, for debugging
   memory reclaim.

 - We now detect when we've blocked for 10 seconds on the allocator in
   the write path and dump some useful info.

 - Safety fixes for devices references: this is a big series that
   changes almost all device lookups to properly check if the device
   exists and take a reference to it.

   Previously we assumed that if a bkey exists that references a device
   then the device must exist, and this was enforced in .invalid
   methods, but this was incorrect because it meant device removal
   relied on accounting being correct to not leave keys pointing to
   invalid devices, and that's not something we can assume.

   Getting the "pointer to invalid device" checks out of our .invalid()
   methods fixes some long standing device removal bugs; the only
   outstanding bug with device removal now is a race between the discard
   path and deleting alloc info, which should be easily fixed.

 - The allocator now prefers not to expand the new
   member_info.btree_allocated bitmap, meaning if repair ever requires
   scanning for btree nodes (because of a corrupt interior nodes) we
   won't have to scan the whole device(s).

 - New coding style document, which among other things talks about the
   correct usage of assertions
