[PATCH v2 4/5] btrfs: add asserts for deleting backref cache nodes

From: Josef Bacik <josef@toxicpanda.com>

A weird KASAN problem that Zygo reported could have been easily caught
if we checked for basic things in our backref freeing code.  We have two
methods of freeing a backref node

- btrfs_backref_free_node: this just is kfree() essentially.
- btrfs_backref_drop_node: this actually unlinks the node and cleans up
  everything and then calls btrfs_backref_free_node().

We should mostly be using btrfs_backref_drop_node(), to make sure the
node is properly unlinked from the backref cache, and only use
btrfs_backref_free_node() when we know the node isn't actually linked to
the backref cache.  We made a mistake here and thus got the KASAN splat.
Make this style of issue easier to find by adding some ASSERT()'s to
btrfs_backref_free_node() and adjusting our deletion stuff to properly
init the list so we can rely on list_empty() checks working properly.
