There are two cases when BTRFS_I(inode)->logged_trans is zero:

However, in b) if btrfs is not committed yet, and this inode _may_ still remain
in log tree.

So we need to check the log tree to get logged_trans a right value
in case it hits a EEXIST while logging.

Instead of doing this why not just check and see if the inode has been logged but the transaction has not yet been committed in btrfs_drop_inode? That way the inode doesn't get evicted from cache until after we know it's ok and that way we don't have to waste a tree lookup. Thanks,
