Subject: Btrfs: fix lock leak when resuming snapshot deletion

From: Josef Bacik <jbacik@xxxxxxxxxxxx>

commit fec386ac1428f9c0e672df952cbca5cebd4e4e2f upstream.

We aren't setting path->locks[level] when we resume a snapshot deletion which
means we won't unlock the buffer when we free the path.  This causes deadlocks
if we happen to re-allocate the block before we've evicted the extent buffer
from cache.  Thanks,
