yep.

This is caused by unnecessary call to btrfs_handle_fs_error for almost
all errors, except EAGAIN. This does not make sense as the standard
transaction abort mechanism is in btrfs_drop_snapshot so all relevant
failures are handled.

Originally in commit cb1b69f4508a ("Btrfs: forced readonly when
btrfs_drop_snapshot() fails") there was no return value at all, so the
btrfs_std_error made some sense but once the error handling and
propagation has been we don't need it.

The use of btrfs_handle_fs_error in other places looks fishy, it makes
sense only in case there's a real error and transaction abort is not
possible, ~40 calls sound too much.

However can we confirm that the error returned here are logged by its parents (relocation thread and the cleaner thread) ?

Thanks, Anand
