What if btrfs_commit_inode_delayed_inode() failed but without a
transaction abort?
E.g. btrfs_alloc_path() failed inside
btrfs_commit_inode_delayed_inode(), then the transaction is just ended
regularly without aborting.
In that case, won't the btrfs_kill_delayed_inode_items() call causing
problems?
