  - btrfs: fix use-after-free of new block group that became unused If a task creates a new block group and
    that block group becomes unused before we finish its creation, at btrfs_create_pending_block_groups(),
    then when btrfs_mark_bg_unused() is called against the block group, we assume that the block group is
    currently in the list of block groups to reclaim, and we move it out of the list of new block groups and
    into the list of unused block groups. This has two consequences: 1) We move it out of the list of new
    block groups associated to the current transaction. So the block group creation is not finished and if we
    attempt to delete the bg because it's unused, we will not find the block group item in the extent tree (or
    the new block group tree), its device extent items in the device tree etc, resulting in the deletion to
    fail due to the missing items; 2) We don't increment the reference count on the block group when we move
    it to the list of unused block groups, because we assumed the block group was on the list of block groups
    to reclaim, and in that case it already has the correct reference count. However the block group was on
    the list of new block groups, in which case no extra reference was taken because it's local to the current
    task. This later results in doing an extra reference count decrement when removing the block group from
    the unused list, eventually leading the reference count to 0. This second case was caught when running
    generic/297 from fstests, which produced the following assertion failure and stack trace: [589.559]
    assertion failed: refcount_read(&block_group->refs) == 1, in fs/btrfs/block-group.c:4299 [589.559]
