btrfs: fix race between logging inode and checking if it was logged before
There's a race between checking if an inode was logged before and logging
an inode that can cause us to mark an inode as not logged just after it
was logged by a concurrent task:
1) We have inode X which was not logged before neither in the current
transaction not in past transaction since the inode was loaded into
memory, so it's ->logged_trans value is 0;
2) We are at transaction N;
3) Task A calls inode_logged() against inode X, sees that ->logged_trans
is 0 and there is a log tree and so it proceeds to search in the log
tree for an inode item for inode X. It doesn't see any, but before
it sets ->logged_trans to N - 1...
3) Task B calls btrfs_log_inode() against inode X, logs the inode and
sets ->logged_trans to N;
4) Task A now sets ->logged_trans to N - 1;
5) At this point anyone calling inode_logged() gets 0 (inode not logged)
since ->logged_trans is greater than 0 and less than N, but our inode
was really logged. As a consequence operations like rename, unlink and
link that happen afterwards in the current transaction end up not
updating the log when they should.
Fix this by ensuring inode_logged() only updates ->logged_trans in case
the inode item is not found in the log tree if after tacking the inode's
lock (spinlock struct btrfs_inode::lock) the ->logged_trans value is still
zero, since the inode lock is what protects setting ->logged_trans at
btrfs_log_inode().
Fixes: 0f8ce49821de ("btrfs: avoid inode logging during rename and link when possible")
