If we do fast tree logging we increment a counter on the current transaction for every ordered extent we need to wait for. This means we expect the transaction to still be there when we clear pending on the ordered extent. However if we happen to abort the transaction and clean it up, there could be no running transaction, and thus we'll trip the "ASSERT(trans)" check. This is obviously incorrect, and the code properly deals with the case that the transaction doesn't exist. Fix this ASSERT() to only fire if there's no trans and we don't have BTRFS_FS_ERROR() set on the file system.
