When btrfs_reloc_cow_block() failed in __btrfs_cow_block(), current
code just return a err-value to caller, but leave new_created extent
buffer exist and locked.

Then subsequent code (in relocate) try to lock above eb again,
and caused deadlock without any dmesg.
(eb lock use wait_event(), so no lockdep message)

It is hard to do recover work in __btrfs_cow_block() at this error
point, but we can abort transaction to avoid deadlock and operate on
unstable state.a

It also helps developer to find wrong place quickly.
(better than a frozen fs without any dmesg before patch)
