[BUG]
Commit 723427d7e6b7 ("btrfs-progs: check: change the way lowmem mode traverses
metadata") introduces a regression which could make some fsck self test
case to fail.
For fsck test case 004-no-dir-item, btrfs check --mode=lowmem --repair
can cause BUG_ON() with ret = -17 (-EEXIST) when committing transaction.
The problem happens with the following backtrace:
./btrfs(+0x22045)[0x555d0dade045]
./btrfs(+0x2216f)[0x555d0dade16f]

The bug is triggered by that, extent allocator considers range [29360128,
29376512) is free and allocate it.
However when inserting EXTENT_ITEM, btrfs finds there is already one
tree block (fs tree root), returning -EEXIST and causing later BUG_ON().
[CAUSE]
The cause is in repair mode, lowmem check always pins all metadata
blocks.
However pinned metadata blocks will be unpin when transaction commits,
and will be marked as *FREE* space.
So later extent allocator will consider such range free and allocate
them wrongly.
[FIX]
Don't pin metadata blocks without valid reason or preparation (like
discard all free space cache to re-calculate free space on next write).
