xfs: bmapbt checking on debug kernels too expensive
For large sparse or fragmented files, checking every single entry in the bmapbt on every operation is prohibitively expensive. Especially as such checks rarely discover problems during normal operations on high extent coutn files. Our regression tests don't tend to exercise files with hundreds of thousands to millions of extents, so mostly this isn't noticed. However, trying to run things like xfs_mdrestore of large filesystem dumps on a debug kernel quickly becomes impossible as the CPU is completely burnt up repeatedly walking the sparse file bmapbt that is generated for every allocation that is made. Hence, if the file has more than 10,000 extents, just don't bother with walking the tree to check it exhaustively. The btree code has checks that ensure that the newly inserted/removed/modified record is correctly ordered, so the entrie tree walk in thses cases has limited additional value.
