Btrfs: remove superblock writing after fatal error

Btrfs: remove superblock writing after fatal error

With commit acce952b0, btrfs was changed to flag the filesystem with
BTRFS_SUPER_FLAG_ERROR and switch to read-only mode after a fatal
error happened like a write I/O errors of all mirrors.
In such situations, on unmount, the superblock is written in
btrfs_error_commit_super(). This is done with the intention to be able
to evaluate the error flag on the next mount. A warning is printed
in this case during the next mount and the log tree is ignored.

The issue is that it is possible that the superblock points to a root
that was not written (due to write I/O errors).
The result is that the filesystem cannot be mounted. btrfsck also does
not start and all the other btrfs-progs tools fail to start as well.
However, mount -o recovery is working well and does the right things
to recover the filesystem (i.e., don't use the log root, clear the
free space cache and use the next mountable root that is stored in the
root backup array).

This patch removes the writing of the superblock when
BTRFS_SUPER_FLAG_ERROR is set, and removes the handling of the error
flag in the mount function.

These lines can be used to reproduce the issue (using /dev/sdm):
SCRATCH_DEV=/dev/sdm
SCRATCH_MNT=/mnt
echo 0 25165824 linear $SCRATCH_DEV 0 | dmsetup create foo
ls -alLF /dev/mapper/foo
mkfs.btrfs /dev/mapper/foo
mount /dev/mapper/foo $SCRATCH_MNT
echo bar > $SCRATCH_MNT/foo
sync
echo 0 25165824 error | dmsetup reload foo
dmsetup resume foo
ls -alF $SCRATCH_MNT
touch $SCRATCH_MNT/1
ls -alF $SCRATCH_MNT
sleep 35
echo 0 25165824 linear $SCRATCH_DEV 0 | dmsetup reload foo
dmsetup resume foo
sleep 1
umount $SCRATCH_MNT
btrfsck /dev/mapper/foo
dmsetup remove foo
