Ugh! You're abusing an atomic_t * for something you want to actually
make this:

@@ -375,6 +375,7 @@ struct async_cow {
 	unsigned int write_flags;
 	struct list_head extents;
 	struct btrfs_work work;
+	atomic_t pending;
+	struct async_cow list[0];
};

and then have:

tmp = krealloc(async_cow, num_chunks * sizeof(*async_cow), GFP_NOFS);
if (!tmp) {
[...]
}
kfree(async_cow);
async_cow = tmp;
