Qu Wenruo 93bba24d4b btrfs: Enhance btrfs_trim_fs function to handle error better
Function btrfs_trim_fs() doesn't handle errors in a consistent way. If
error happens when trimming existing block groups, it will skip the
remaining blocks and continue to trim unallocated space for each device.

The return value will only reflect the final error from device trimming.

This patch will fix such behavior by:

1) Recording the last error from block group or device trimming
   The return value will also reflect the last error during trimming.
   Make developer more aware of the problem.

2) Continuing trimming if possible
   If we failed to trim one block group or device, we could still try
   the next block group or device.

3) Report number of failures during block group and device trimming
   It would be less noisy, but still gives user a brief summary of
   what's going wrong.

Such behavior can avoid confusion for cases like failure to trim the
first block group and then only unallocated space is trimmed.

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 Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.

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.
