[BUG] Syzbot reported a crash that an ASSERT() got triggered inside prepare_to_merge(). [CAUSE] The root cause of the triggered ASSERT() is we can have a race between quota tree creation and relocation. This leads us to create a duplicated quota tree in the btrfs_read_fs_root() path, and since it's treated as fs tree, it would have ROOT_SHAREABLE flag, causing us to create a reloc tree for it. The bug itself is fixed by a dedicated patch for it, but this already taught us the ASSERT() is not something straightforward for developers. [ENHANCEMENT] Instead of using an ASSERT(), let's handle it gracefully and output extra info about the mismatch reloc roots to help debug. Also with the above ASSERT() removed, we can trigger ASSERT(0)s inside merge_reloc_roots() later. Also replace those ASSERT(0)s with WARN_ON()s.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
