3.6.11.9-rc1 stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know. ------------------ From: Josef Bacik [ Upstream commit d29a9f629e009c9b90e5859bce581070fd6247fc ] If we stop dropping a root for whatever reason we need to add it back to the dead root list so that we will re-start the dropping next transaction commit. The other case this happens is if we recover a drop because we will add a root without adding it to the fs radix tree, so we can leak it's root and commit root extent buffer, adding this to the dead root list makes this cleanup happen.
