commit fb286100974e7239af243bc2255a52f29442f9c8 upstream.

While testing the error paths of relocation I hit the following lockdep
splat:

======================================================
WARNING: possible circular locking dependency detected
5.10.0-rc6+ #217 Not tainted
------------------------------------------------------
mount/779 is trying to acquire lock:
ffffa0e676945418 (&fs_info->balance_mutex){+.+.}-{3:3}, at: btrfs_recover_balance+0x2f0/0x340

but task is already holding lock:
ffffa0e60ee31da8 (btrfs-root-00){++++}-{3:3}, at: __btrfs_tree_read_lock+0x27/0x100

which lock already depends on the new lock.

the existing dependency chain (in reverse order) is:

other info that might help us debug this:

Chain exists of:
&fs_info->balance_mutex --> sb_internal#2 --> btrfs-root-00

Possible unsafe locking scenario:

CPU0 CPU1
---- ----
lock(btrfs-root-00);
lock(sb_internal#2);
lock(btrfs-root-00);
lock(&fs_info->balance_mutex);

This is straightforward to fix, simply release the path before we setup
the balance_ctl.
