Ok, I see what the problem is.

Right, without the patch, it should make copy_items()'s
btrfs_insert_empty_items()
return -EEXIST.

If the last trans field isn't set, it means the inode has not been modified, so
it does not need to find the logged things, does it? Or am I missing something?

Agree, actually this patch came from Josef's advice that we could hold the inode
in cache till sometime is ok, but I have to apologize for not getting the OOM
problems
into consideration.
So we can go back to tree lookup method, can you pick this one instead?

[PATCH] Btrfs: deal with EEXIST after iput
There are two cases when BTRFS_I(inode)->logged_trans is zero:
a) an inode is just allocated;
b) iput an inode and reread it.
However, in b) if btrfs is not committed yet, and this inode _may_ still remain
in log tree.
So we need to check the log tree to get logged_trans a right value
in case it hits a EEXIST while logging.
