[ Upstream commit b659ef027792219b590d67a2baf1643a93727d29 ]
Commit 3a8b36f37806 ("Btrfs: fix data loss in the fast fsync path") added a performance regression for that causes an unnecessary sync of the log trees (fs/subvol and root log trees) when 2 consecutive fsyncs are done against a file, without no writes or any metadata updates to the inode in between them and if a transaction is committed before the second fsync is called.
Huang Ying reported this to lkml (https://lkml.org/lkml/2015/3/18/99) after a test sysbench test that measured a -62% decrease of file io requests per second for that tests' workload.
The test is:

A test on kvm guest, running a debug kernel gave me the following results:
