bcache: improve multithreaded bch_btree_check()
Commit 8e7102273f59 ("bcache: make bch_btree_check() to be multithreaded") makes bch_btree_check() to be much faster when checking all btree nodes during cache device registration. But it isn't in ideal shap yet, still can be improved. This patch does the following thing to improve current parallel btree nodes check by multiple threads in bch_btree_check(), - Add read lock to root node while checking all the btree nodes with multiple threads. Although currently it is not mandatory but it is good to have a read lock in code logic. - Remove local variable 'char name[32]', and generate kernel thread name string directly when calling kthread_run(). - Allocate local variable "struct btree_check_state check_state" on the stack and avoid unnecessary dynamic memory allocation for it. - Reduce BCH_BTR_CHKTHREAD_MAX from 64 to 12 which is enough indeed. - Increase check_state->started to count created kernel thread after it succeeds to create. - When wait for all checking kernel threads to finish, use wait_event() to replace wait_event_interruptible(). With this change, the code is more clear, and some potential error conditions are avoided.
