Btrfs: use RCU instead of a spinlock to protect the root node
The pointer to the extent buffer for the root of each tree is protected by a spinlock so that we can safely read the pointer and take a reference on the extent buffer. But now that the extent buffers are freed via RCU, we can safely use rcu_read_lock instead. Signed-off-by: Chris Mason <chris.mason@oracle.com>
