btrfs_recover_relocation() invokes btrfs_join_transaction(), which joins
a btrfs_trans_handle object into transactions and returns a reference of
it with increased refcount to "trans".
When btrfs_recover_relocation() returns, "trans" becomes invalid, so the
refcount should be decreased to keep refcount balanced.
The reference counting issue happens in one exception handling path of
btrfs_recover_relocation(). When read_fs_root() failed, the refcnt
increased by btrfs_join_transaction() is not decreased, causing a refcnt
leak.
Fix this issue by calling btrfs_end_transaction() on this error path
when read_fs_root() failed.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
