commit fd57a98d6f0c98fa295813087f13afb26c224e73 upstream. When we have smack enabled, during the creation of a directory smack may attempt to add a "smack transmute" xattr on the inode, which results in the following warning and trace: WARNING: CPU: 3 PID: 2548 at fs/btrfs/transaction.c:537 start_transaction+0x489/0x4f0 Modules linked in: nft_objref nf_conntrack_netbios_ns (...)

So fix this by making btrfs_setxattr_trans() not start a transaction when we already have a handle on one, stored in current->journal_info, and use that handle. We are good to use the handle because at btrfs_mkdir() we did reserve space for the xattr and the inode item.

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.
