btrfs: offline dedupe
This patch adds an ioctl, BTRFS_IOC_FILE_EXTENT_SAME which will try to de-duplicate a list of extents across a range of files. Internally, the ioctl re-uses code from the clone ioctl. This avoids rewriting a large chunk of extent handling code. Userspace passes in an array of file, offset pairs along with a length argument. The ioctl will then (for each dedupe) do a byte-by-byte comparison of the user data before deduping the extent. Status and number of bytes deduped are returned for each operation.
