When a rewound buffer is created it already has a ref count of 1 and the dummy flag set. Then another ref is taken bumping the count to 2. Finally when this buffer is released from btrfs_release_path the extra reference is decremented by the special handling code in free_extent_buffer. However, this special code is in fact redundant sinca ref count of 1 is still correct since the buffer is only accessed via btrfs_path struct. This paves the way forward of removing the special handling in free_extent_buffer.

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.
