Yep, but since we're here to do extra verification, checking everything
is never a bad idea. By this we don't need to bother checking other
members when new corruption pops out.

While I don't think that's the cause of these reported corruption.
I'd prefer some under/over flow of memory which corrupted
fs_info->super_copy somehow. It may be btrfs or it may not.

It's pretty hard to determine with just 2 reports.
Especially for ben's report, he is using latest vega graphics IIRC, who
knows what could went wrong with latest amd drm codes.

I checked the dump super output, where log_tree output is all 0, means
no log tree, hence not btrfs_sync_log() caused the problem.

From Ben's:
------
chunk_root              5518540881920
chunk_root_level        1
log_root                0
log_root_transid        0
log_root_level          0
------

And from Ken's
------
chunk_root        21004288
chunk_root_level    1
log_root        0
log_root_transid    0
log_root_level        0
------

So at least for current only reports, it's not btrfs_sync_log() causing
the problem.
