Btrfs: add a rb_tree to improve performance of ulist search

Walking backref tree and btrfs quota rely on ulist very much.
This patch tries to use rb_tree to speed up search time.

The original code always checks whether an element
exists before adding a new element, however it costs O(n).

I try to add a rb_tree in the ulist,this is only used to speed up
search. I also do some measurements with quota enabled.

fsstress -p 4 -n 10000

After applying the patch,the execute time is down by ~42%.(11.287s->6.532s)
