btrfs: use a single argument for extent offset in backref walking fun…
…ctions The interface for find_parent_nodes() has two extent offset related arguments: 1) One u64 pointer argument for the extent offset; 2) One boolean argument to tell if the extent offset should be ignored or not. These are confusing, becase the extent offset pointer can be NULL and in some cases callers pass a NULL value as a way to tell the backref walking code to ignore offsets in file extent items (and simply consider all file extent items that point to the target data extent). The boolean argument was added in commit c995ab3 ("btrfs: add a flag to iterate_inodes_from_logical to find all extent refs for uncompressed extents"), but it was never really necessary, it was enough if it could find a way to get a NULL value passed to the "extent_item_pos" argument of find_parent_nodes(). The arguments are also passed to functions called by find_parent_nodes() and respective helper functions, which further makes everything more complicated than needed. Then we have several backref walking related functions that end up calling find_parent_nodes(), either directly or through some other function that they call, and for many we have to use an "extent_item_pos" (u64) argument and a boolean "ignore_offset" argument too. This is confusing and not really necessary. So use a single argument to specify the extent offset, as a simple u64 and not as a pointer, but using a special value of (u64)-1, defined as a documented constant, to indicate when the extent offset should be ignored. This is also preparation work for the upcoming patches in the series that add other arguments to find_parent_nodes() and other related functions that use it.
