Subject: [PATCH] btrfs: Correctly free extent buffer in case
 btree_read_extent_buffer_pages fails

If a an eb fails to be read for whatever reason - it's corrupted on disk
and parent transid/key validations fail or IO for eb pages fail then
this buffer must be removed from the buffer cache. Currently the code
calls free_extent_buffer if an error occurs. Unfortunately this doesn't
achieve the desired behavior since btrfs_find_create_tree_block returns
with eb->refs == 2.

On the other hand free_extent_buffer will only decrement the refs once
leaving it added to the buffer cache radix tree.  This enables later
code to look up the buffer from the cache and utilize it potentially
leading to a crash.

The correct way to free the buffer is call free_extent_buffer_stale.
This function will correctly call atomic_dec explicitly for the buffer
and subsequently call release_extent_buffer which will decrement the
final reference thus correctly remove the invalid buffer from buffer
cache. This change affects only newly allocated buffers since they have
eb->refs == 2.
