btrfs: fix discard worker infinite loop after disabling discard
If the discard worker is running and there's currently only one block
group, that block group is a data block group, it's in the unused block
groups discard list and is being used (it got an extent allocated from it
after becoming unused), the worker can end up in an infinite loop if a
transaction abort happens or the async discard is disabled (during remount
or unmount for example).
This happens like this:
1) Task A, the discard worker, is at peek_discard_list() and
find_next_block_group() returns block group X;
2) Block group X is in the unused block groups discard list (its discard
index is BTRFS_DISCARD_INDEX_UNUSED) since at some point in the past
it become an unused block group and was added to that list, but then
later it got an extent allocated from it, so its ->used counter is not
zero anymore;
3) The current transaction is aborted by task B and we end up at
__btrfs_handle_fs_error() in the transaction abort path, where we call
btrfs_discard_stop(), which clears BTRFS_FS_DISCARD_RUNNING from
fs_info, and then at __btrfs_handle_fs_error() we set the fs to RO mode
(setting SB_RDONLY in the super block's s_flags field);
4) Task A calls __add_to_discard_list() with the goal of moving the block
group from the unused block groups discard list into another discard
list, but at __add_to_discard_list() we end up doing nothing because
btrfs_run_discard_work() returns false, since the super block has
SB_RDONLY set in its flags and BTRFS_FS_DISCARD_RUNNING is not set
anymore in fs_info->flags. So block group X remains in the unused block
groups discard list;
5) Task A then does a goto into the 'again' label, calls
find_next_block_group() again we gets block group X again. Then it
repeats the previous steps over and over since there are not other
block groups in the discard lists and block group X is never moved
out of the unused block groups discard list since
btrfs_run_discard_work() keeps returning false and therefore
__add_to_discard_list() doesn't move block group X out of that discard
list.
When this happens we can get a soft lockup report like this:

So fix this by making sure we move a block group out of the unused block
groups discard list when calling __add_to_discard_list().
