PATCH 1/1 btrfs: fix use after free iterating extrefs

The code for btrfs inode-resolve has never worked properly for files with enough hard links to trigger extrefs. It was trying to get the leaf out of a path after freeing the path:

	btrfs_release_path(path);
	leaf = path->nodes[0];
	item_size = btrfs_item_size_nr(leaf, slot);

The fix here is to use the extent buffer we cloned just a little higher up to avoid deadlocks caused by using the leaf in the path.

Looks good to me.
I failed to notice that problem at commit [1]

Thanks Mark and Filipe, I've tested this and queued it up.
