Subject: [PATCH] btrfs: block-group: Fix free-space bitmap threshould

From: Marcos Paulo de Souza <mpdesouza@...e.com>

[BUG]
After commit 9afc66498a0b ("btrfs: block-group: refactor how we read one
block group item"), cache->length is being assigned after calling
btrfs_create_block_group_cache. This causes a problem since
set_free_space_tree_thresholds is calculate the free-space threshould to
decide is the free-space tree should convert from extents to bitmaps.

The current code calls set_free_space_tree_thresholds with cache->length
being 0, which then makes cache->bitmap_high_thresh being zero. This
implies the system will always use bitmap instead of extents, which is
not desired if the block group is not fragmented.

This behavior can be seen by a test that expects to repair systems
with FREE_SPACE_EXTENT and FREE_SPACE_BITMAP, but the current code only
created FREE_SPACE_BITMAP.

[FIX]
Call set_free_space_tree_thresholds after setting cache->length.
