btrfs: make btrfs_discard_workfn() block_group ref explicit
[ Upstream commit 895c6721 ] Currently, the async discard machinery owns a ref to the block_group when the block_group is queued on a discard list. However, to handle races with discard cancellation and the discard workfn, we have a specific logic to detect that the block_group is *currently* running in the workfn, to protect the workfn's usage amidst cancellation. As far as I can tell, this doesn't have any overt bugs (though finish_discard_pass() and remove_from_discard_list() racing can have a surprising outcome for the caller of remove_from_discard_list() in that it is again added at the end). But it is needlessly complicated to rely on locking and the nullity of discard_ctl->block_group. Simplify this significantly by just taking a refcount while we are in the workfn and unconditionally drop it in both the remove and workfn paths, regardless of if they race.
