We set the BTRFS_BALANCE_RESUME flag in the btrfs_recover_balance()
only, which isn't called during the remount. So when resuming from
the paused balance we hit the BUG.
kernel: kernel BUG at fs/btrfs/volumes.c:3890!
::
kernel: balance_kthread+0x51/0x60 [btrfs]
kernel: kthread+0x111/0x130
::
kernel: RIP: btrfs_balance+0x12e1/0x1570 [btrfs] RSP: ffffba7d0090bde8
Reproducer:
On a mounted BTRFS.
btrfs balance start --full-balance /btrfs
btrfs balance pause /btrfs
mount -o remount,ro /dev/sdb /btrfs
mount -o remount,rw /dev/sdb /btrfs
To fix this set the BTRFS_BALANCE_RESUME flag in btrfs_resume_balance_async().

v2->v3: . Hold fs_info->balance_lock because in remount context there can
be more the one thread accessing the balance_ctl.
. Don't remove the BTRFS_BALANCE_RESUME set at recover_balance
as in the original code.
. Add comments.
v1->v2: btrfs_resume_balance_async() can be called only from remount or
mount, we don't need to hold fs_info->balance_lock.
