Btrfs: send, don't bug on inconsistent snapshots
When doing an incremental send, if we find a new/modified/deleted extent, reference or xattr without having previously processed the corresponding inode item we end up exexuting a BUG_ON(). This is because whenever an extent, xattr or reference is added, modified or deleted, we always expect to have the corresponding inode item updated. However there are situations where this will not happen due to transient -ENOMEM or -ENOSPC errors when doing delayed inode updates. For example, when punching holes we can succeed in deleting and modifying (shrinking) extents but later fail to do the delayed inode update. So after such failure we close our transaction handle and right after a snapshot of the fs/subvol tree can be made and used later for a send operation. The same thing can happen during truncate, link, unlink, and xattr related operations. So instead of executing a BUG_ON, make send return an -EIO error and print an informative error message do dmesg/syslog. Signed-off-by: Filipe Manana <fdmanana@suse.com>
