Filipe Manana c79f57eafc btrfs: avoid pointless wake ups of drew lock readers
When unlocking a write lock on a drew lock, at btrfs_drew_write_unlock(),
it's pointless to wake up tasks waiting to acquire a read lock if we
didn't decrement the 'writers' counter down to 0, since a read lock can
only be acquired when the counter reaches a value of 0. Doing so is
harmless from a functional point of view, but it's not efficient due to
unnecessarily waking up tasks just for them to sleep again on the
waitqueue.

So change this to wake up readers only if we decremented the 'writers'
counter to 0.

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
