Yeah, I can't really defend this one. We needed a space for an int and
I assumed end_io meant the FS was free to do horrible things.

Really though, I'll just take a quick dip in the lake and patch this out
of btrfs.

Jan is probably right about changing around our endio callbacks to
explicitly pass the mirror, it should be less complex and cleaner.

Many thanks to everyone here that tracked it down.
