Back in the day, before commit 0b246afa62b0 ("btrfs: root->fs_info
cleanup, add fs_info convenience variables") then we used to take
different locks. But now it's just one lock and the static checkers
think we can call down_read(&fs_info->subvol_sem); twice in a row which
would lead to a deadlock.
That code is several years old now so presumably both (old_ino ==
BTRFS_FIRST_FREE_OBJECTID) and (new_ino == BTRFS_FIRST_FREE_OBJECTID)
conditions can't be true at the same time or the bug would have showed
up in testing. I have re-written the code though to make it cleaner and
to silence the static checkers.
