Exploitability: 1.8 / Impact: 3.6

Description
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
btrfs: clean up our handling of refs == 0 in snapshot delete
In reada we BUG_ON(refs == 0), which could be unkind since we aren't
holding a lock on the extent leaf and thus could get a transient
incorrect answer. In walk_down_proc we also BUG_ON(refs == 0), which
could happen if we have extent tree corruption. Change that to return
-EUCLEAN. In do_walk_down() we catch this case and handle it correctly,
however we return -EIO, which -EUCLEAN is a more appropriate error code.
Finally in walk_up_proc we have the same BUG_ON(refs == 0), so convert
that to proper error handling. Also adjust the error message so we can
actually do something with the information.
