Subject: Btrfs: fix deadlock in run_delalloc_nocow

From: Liu Bo <[email protected]>

commit e89166990f11c3f21e1649d760dd35f9e410321c upstream.

@cur_offset is not set back to what it should be (@cow_start) if btrfs_next_leaf() returns something wrong, and the range [cow_start, cur_offset) remains locked forever.
