Btrfs: fix race during transaction joins
While we're allocating ram for a new transaction, we drop our spinlock. When we get the lock back, we do check to see if a transaction started while we slept, but we don't check to make sure it isn't blocked because a commit has already started. Signed-off-by: Chris Mason <chris.mason@oracle.com>
