[PATCH 5.14 011/432] btrfs: reduce the preemptive flushing threshold to 90%

[Greg Kroah-Hartman]

From: Josef Bacik <josef@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>

commit 93c60b17f2b5fca2c5931d7944788d1ef5f25528 upstream.

The preemptive flushing code was added in order to avoid needing to
synchronously wait for ENOSPC flushing to recover space.  Once we're
almost full however we can essentially flush constantly.  We were using
98% as a threshold to determine if we were simply full, however in
practice this is a really high bar to hit.  For example reports of
systems running into this problem had around 94% usage and thus
continued to flush.  Fix this by lowering the threshold to 90%, which is
a more sane value, especially for smaller file systems.
