Btrfs: fix race between snapshot deletion and getting inode
While running snapshot testscript created by Mitch and David, the race between autodefrag and snapshot deletion can lead to corruption of dead_root list so that we can get crash on btrfs_clean_old_snapshots(). And besides autodefrag, scrub also does the same thing, ie. read root first and get inode. Here is the story(take autodefrag as an example): (1) when we delete a snapshot or subvolume, it will set its root's refs to zero and do a iput() on its own inode, and if this inode happens to be the only active in-meory one in root's inode rbtree, it will add itself to the global dead_roots list for later cleanup. (2) after (1), the autodefrag thread may read another inode for defrag and the inode is just in the deleted snapshot/subvolume, but all of these are without checking if the root is still valid(refs > 0). So the end up result is adding the deleted snapshot/subvolume's root to the global dead_roots list AGAIN. Fortunately, we already have a srcu lock to avoid the race, ie. subvol_srcu. So all we need to do is to take the lock to protect 'read root and get inode', since we synchronize to wait for the rcu grace period before adding something to the global dead_roots list.
