Subject: btrfs: fix use after free iterating extrefs
commit dc6c5fb3b514221f2e9d21ee626a9d95d3418dff upstream.
The code for btrfs inode-resolve has never worked properly for
files with enough hard links to trigger extrefs. It was trying to
get the leaf out of a path after freeing the path:
btrfs_release_path(path);
leaf = path->nodes[0];
item_size = btrfs_item_size_nr(leaf, slot);
The fix here is to use the extent buffer we cloned just a little higher
up to avoid deadlocks caused by using the leaf in the path.
