Subject: [PATCH 0/2] btrfs: clean up two FIXMEs related to btrfs_search_slot output handling

Both patches fix cases where a search with offset (u64)-1 gets an
unexpected exact match. The first silently returned success, and the
second crashed the kernel. Both now both log an error and return -EUCLEAN.

Adarsh Das (2):
  btrfs: handle unexpected exact match in btrfs_set_inode_index_count()
  btrfs: replace BUG() with error handling in __btrfs_balance()
