Subject: [syzbot] [btrfs?] WARNING in btrfs_put_root

AI-generated root cause summary:
When a Btrfs filesystem encounters a transaction abort (reported in state EA),
inodes being evicted during unmount (particularly via delayed iputs in
close_ctree(), which runs after btrfs_error_commit_super()) fail to persist
their delayed inode updates in btrfs_commit_inode_delayed_inode() because
transaction joining fails. In btrfs_evict_inode(), this error causes execution
to jump directly to the out label, bypassing btrfs_kill_delayed_inode_items().
Because the delayed items remain uncleaned, __btrfs_release_delayed_node()
re-queues the delayed node into delayed_root->node_list and retains a reference,
preventing refcount_dec_and_test() from hitting zero and skipping
xa_erase(&root->delayed_nodes, ...). When the root is finally freed in
btrfs_put_root(), root->delayed_nodes is still non-empty, triggering
WARN_ON(!xa_empty(&root->delayed_nodes)).
