These two fixes are for error handling after we abort a transaction. One is a memory leak fix, and the other one is a NULL pointer fix.

When we abort a transaction while fsyncing, we''ll skip freeing log
roots
part of committing a transaction, which leads to memory leak.
This adds a ''free log roots'' in putting super when no more
users hold
references on log roots, so it''s safe and clean.

[PATCH 2/2] Btrfs: fix NULL pointer after aborting a transaction
While doing cleanup work on an aborted transaction, we''ve set
the global running transaction pointer to NULL _before_ waiting all
other transaction handles to finish, so others''d hit NULL pointer
crash when referencing the global running transaction pointer.
This first sets a hint to avoid new transaction handle joining, then
waits other existing handles to abort or finish so that we can safely
set the above global pointer to NULL.
