This patch contains two changes to avoid unnecessary tree block reads during
snapshot dropping. First, check tree block''s reference count and flags
before
reading the tree block. if reference count > 1 and there is no need to update
backrefs, we can avoid reading the tree block. Second, save when snapshot was
created in root_key.offset. we can compare block pointer''s generation
with
snapshot''s creation generation during updating backrefs. If a given
block was
created before snapshot was created, the snapshot can''t be the tree
block''s
owner. So we can avoid reading the block.
