btrfs: Catch locking failures in {set,clear,convert}_extent_bit
The *_state functions can only return 0 or -EEXIST. This patch addresses
the cases where those functions returning -EEXIST represent a locking
failure. It handles them by panicking with an appropriate error message.

btrfs: Add btrfs_panic()
As part of the effort to eliminate BUG_ON as an error handling
technique, we need to determine which errors are actual logic errors,
which are on-disk corruption, and which are normal runtime errors
e.g. -ENOMEM.
Annotating these error cases is helpful to understand and report them.
This patch adds a btrfs_panic() routine that will either panic
or BUG depending on the new -ofatal_errors={panic,bug} mount option.
Since there are still so many BUG_ONs, it defaults to BUG for now but I
expect that to change once the error handling effort has made
significant progress.

Don't limit non-nested epoll paths
Commit 28d82dc1c4ed ("epoll: limit paths") that I did to limit the
number of possible wakeup paths in epoll is causing a few applications
to longer work (dovecot for one).
The original patch is really about limiting the amount of epoll nesting
(since epoll fds can be attached to other fds). Thus, we probably can
allow an unlimited number of paths of depth 1. My current patch limits
it at 1000. And enforce the limits on paths that have a greater depth.
