Good cleanup and the patch would be ok as-is. I've noticed that
check_delayed_ref now returns only two values so it might make sense to
turn it to bool and update the name of check_delayed_ref to make it
clear what the return value means in the loop.

The concern here is that adding another error code in check_delayed_ref
in the future will not be caught in btrfs_cross_ref_exist. Adding an
assert filtering only EAGAIN would be sufficient as this might miss the
extra value in case it'd be an uncommon case.
