Btrfs: fix the deadlock between the transaction start/attach and commit
Now btrfs_commit_transaction() does this ret = btrfs_run_ordered_operations(root, 0) which async flushes all inodes on the ordered operations list, it introduced a deadlock that transaction-start task, transaction-commit task and the flush workers waited for each other. (See the following URL to get the detail http://marc.info/?l=linux-btrfs&m=136070705732646&w=2) As we know, if ->in_commit is set, it means someone is committing the current transaction, we should not try to join it if we are not JOIN or JOIN_NOLOCK, wait is the best choice for it. In this way, we can avoid the above problem. In this way, there is another benefit: there is no new transaction handle to block the transaction which is on the way of commit, once we set ->in_commit.
