Btrfs: Don't loop forever on metadata IO failures
When a btrfs metadata read fails, the first thing we try to do is find a good copy on another mirror of the block. If this fails, read_tree_block() ends up returning a buffer that isn't up to date. The btrfs btree reading code was reworked to drop locks and repeat the search when IO was done, but the changes didn't add a check for failed reads. The end result was looping forever on buffers that were never going to become up to date. Signed-off-by: Chris Mason <chris.mason@oracle.com>
