Sounds much better.

Not exactly.

1) bg_list is kind of abused.
   Not only fs_info->unused_bgs, but also transaction->deleted_bgs, and
   even transaction->new_bgs could use bg_cache->bg_list.
   So it's not only used to detect unused bgs.
   And it's possible some bg get moved to deleted_bgs list.

2) That is comment only works for caller in btrfs_read_block_groups().
   As at that timing, there is no race at all since we're still mounting
   the fs.
   But may not work for other callers.

Thus I just kept the code while removed the comment, since in the
extracted function, it may no longer be the case.
(And my focus is later auto-removal generation check, so I just left
code as is)

Thanks,
Qu
