While testing my error handling patches, I added a error injection site at btrfs_inc_extent_ref, to validate the error handling I added was doing the correct thing. However I hit a pretty ugly corruption while doing this check, with the following error injection stack trace:
btrfs_inc_extent_ref btrfs_copy_root create_reloc_root btrfs_init_reloc_root btrfs_record_root_in_trans btrfs_start_transaction btrfs_update_inode btrfs_update_time touch_atime file_accessed btrfs_file_mmap
This is because we do not catch the error from btrfs_inc_extent_ref, which in practice would be ENOMEM, which means we lose the extent references for a root that has already been allocated and inserted, which is the problem. Fix this by aborting the transaction if we fail to do the reference modification.
