commit 48ec47364b6d493f0a9cdc116977bf3f34e5c3ec upstream.

Running balance and defrag concurrently can end up with a crash:

----------------------------------------------------------------------

It turns out to be that balance operation will bump root's @last_snapshot,
which enables snapshot-aware defrag path, and backref walking stuff will
find data reloc tree as refs' parent, and hit the BUG_ON() during COW.

As data reloc tree's data is just for relocation purpose, and will be deleted right
after relocation is done, it's unnecessary to walk those refs belonged to data reloc
tree, it'd be better to skip them.
