Btrfs: fix lockdep warning on deadlock against an inode's log mutex

Commit 44f714dae50a ("Btrfs: improve performance on fsync against new
inode after rename/unlink"), which landed in 4.8-rc2, introduced a
possibility for a deadlock due to double locking of an inode's log mutex
by the same task, which lockdep reports with:

An example reproducer for this is:

   $ mkfs.btrfs -f /dev/sdb
   $ mount /dev/sdb /mnt
   $ mkdir /mnt/dir
   $ touch /mnt/dir/foo
   $ sync
   $ mv /mnt/dir/foo /mnt/dir/bar
   $ touch /mnt/dir/foo
   $ xfs_io -c "fsync" /mnt/dir/bar

This is because while logging the inode of file bar we end up logging its
parent directory (since its inode has an unlink_trans field matching the
current transaction id due to the rename operation), which in turn logs
the inodes for all its new dentries, so that the new inode for the new
file named foo gets logged which in turn triggered another logging attempt
for the inode we are fsync'ing, since that inode had an old name that
corresponds to the name of the new inode.

So fix this by ensuring that when logging the inode for a new dentry that
has a name matching an old name of some other inode, we don't log again
the original inode that we are fsync'ing.
