In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
btrfs: call __btrfs_remove_free_space_cache_locked on cache load failure
Now that lockdep is staying enabled through our entire CI runs I started
seeing the following stack in generic/475

This is the code
ctl = block_group->free_space_ctl;
discard_ctl = &block_group->fs_info->discard_ctl;
lockdep_assert_held(&ctl->tree_lock);
We have a temporary free space ctl for loading the free space cache in
order to avoid having allocations happening while we're loading the
cache. When we hit an error we free it all up, however this also calls
btrfs_discard_update_discardable, which requires
block_group->free_space_ctl->tree_lock to be held. However this is our
temporary ctl so this lock isn't held. Fix this by calling
__btrfs_remove_free_space_cache_locked instead so that we only clean up
the entries and do not mess with the discardable stats.
