Omar Sandoval c9eb55db84 btrfs: get rid of pointless wtag variable in async-thread.c
Commit ac0c7cf8be ("btrfs: fix crash when tracepoint arguments are
freed by wq callbacks") added a void pointer, wtag, which is passed into
trace_btrfs_all_work_done() instead of the freed work item. This is
silly for a few reasons:

1. The freed work item still has the same address.
2. work is still in scope after it's freed, so assigning wtag doesn't
   stop anyone from using it.
3. The tracepoint has always taken a void * argument, so assigning wtag
   doesn't actually make things any more type-safe. (Note that the
   original bug in commit bc074524e1 ("btrfs: prefix fsid to all trace
   events") was that the void * was implicitly casted when it was passed
   to btrfs_work_owner() in the trace point itself).

Instead, let's add some clearer warnings as comments.
