btrfs: skip transaction commit after failure to create subvolume
At ioctl.c:create_subvol(), when we fail to create a subvolume we always
commit the transaction. In most cases this is a no-op, since all the error
paths, except for one, abort the transaction - the only exception is when
we fail to insert the new root item into the root tree, in that case we
don't abort the transaction because we didn't do anything that is
irreversible - however we end up committing the transaction which although
is not a functional problem, it adds unnecessary rotation of the backup
roots in the superblock and unnecessary work.
So change that to commit a transaction only when no error happened,
otherwise just call btrfs_end_transaction() to release our reference on
the transaction.
