Subject: CVE-2024-26904: btrfs: fix data race at btrfs_use_block_rsv() when accessing block reserve

Description
===========

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

btrfs: fix data race at btrfs_use_block_rsv() when accessing block reserve

At btrfs_use_block_rsv() we read the size of a block reserve without
locking its spinlock, which makes KCSAN complain because the size of a
block reserve is always updated while holding its spinlock. The report
from KCSAN is the following:

  [653.313148] BUG: KCSAN: data-race in btrfs_update_delayed_refs_rsv [btrfs] / btrfs_use_block_rsv [btrfs]

So add a helper to get the size of a block reserve while holding the lock.
Reading the field while holding the lock instead of using the data_race()
annotation is used in order to prevent load tearing.

The Linux kernel CVE team has assigned CVE-2024-26904 to this issue.

Mitigation
==========

The Linux kernel CVE team recommends that you update to the latest
stable kernel version for this, and many other bugfixes.  Individual
changes are never tested alone, but rather are part of a larger kernel
release.  Cherry-picking individual commits is not recommended or
supported by the Linux kernel community at all.  If however, updating to
the latest release is impossible, the individual changes to resolve this
issue can be found at these commits:
