xfs: avoid mount-time deadlock in CoW extent recovery
commit 3ecb3ac7 upstream. If a malicious user corrupts the refcount btree to cause a cycle between different levels of the tree, the next mount attempt will deadlock in the CoW recovery routine while grabbing buffer locks. We can use the ability to re-grab a buffer that was previous locked to a transaction to avoid deadlocks, so do that here. Signed-off-by: Darrick J.
