In btree_gc_rewrite_node(), pointer 'n' is not checked after it returns
from btree_gc_rewrite_node(). There is potential possibility that 'n' is
a non NULL ERR_PTR(), referencing such error code is not permitted in
following code. Therefore a return value checking is necessary after 'n'
is back from btree_node_alloc_replacement().
