Josef Bacik 7837fa8870 btrfs: drop the path before adding block group sysfs files
Dave reported a problem with my rwsem conversion patch where we got the
following lockdep splat:

  ======================================================
  WARNING: possible circular locking dependency detected
  5.9.0-default+ #1297 Not tainted
  ------------------------------------------------------
  kswapd0/76 is trying to acquire lock:
  ffff9d5d25df2530 (&delayed_node->mutex){+.+.}-{3:3}, at: __btrfs_release_delayed_node.part.0+0x3f/0x320 [btrfs]

  but task is already holding lock:
  ffffffffa40cbba0 (fs_reclaim){+.+.}-{0:0}, at: __fs_reclaim_acquire+0x5/0x30

  which lock already depends on the new lock.

  other info that might help us debug this:

  Chain exists of:
    &delayed_node->mutex --> kernfs_mutex --> fs_reclaim

   Possible unsafe locking scenario:

	 ----                    ----
    lock(fs_reclaim);
				 lock(kernfs_mutex);
				 lock(fs_reclaim);
    lock(&delayed_node->mutex);

   *** DEADLOCK ***

   ret_from_fork+0x1f/0x30

This happens because we are still holding the path open when we start
adding the sysfs files for the block groups, which creates a dependency
on fs_reclaim via the tree lock.  Fix this by dropping the path before
we start doing anything with sysfs.

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.
