Instead of recording that a new subvolume was created in a directory after
we add the entry do the directory, record it before adding the entry. This
is to avoid races where after creating the entry and before recording the
new subvolume in the directory (the call to btrfs_record_new_subvolume()),
another task logs the directory, so we end up with a log tree where we
logged a directory that has an entry pointing to a root that was not yet
committed, resulting in an invalid entry if the log is persisted and
replayed later due to a power failure or crash.
Also state this requirement in the function comment for
btrfs_record_new_subvolume(), similar to what we do for the
btrfs_record_unlink_dir() and btrfs_record_snapshot_destroy().
Fixes: 45c4102f0d ("btrfs: avoid transaction commit on any fsync after subvolume creation")

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 reStructuredText 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.
