Subject: [PATCH] btrfs: Fix NULL pointer access in btrfs_check_leaked_roots()

If fs_info->super_copy or fs_info->super_for_commit is NULL in
btrfs_get_tree_subvol(), the btrfs_check_leaked_roots() will get the
btrfs_root list entry using the fs_info->allocated_roots->next
which is NULL.

This should check if the fs_info->allocated_roots->next is NULL before
accessing it.
