[PATCH 4.4 69/92] btrfs: fix crash when trying to resume balance without the resume flag

4.4-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Anand Jain <anand.jain@xxxxxxxxxx>

commit 02ee654d3a04563c67bfe658a05384548b9bb105 upstream.

We set the BTRFS_BALANCE_RESUME flag in the btrfs_recover_balance()
only, which isn't called during the remount. So when resuming from
the paused balance we hit the bug:

kernel: kernel BUG at fs/btrfs/volumes.c:3890!
::
kernel: balance_kthread+0x51/0x60 [btrfs]
kernel: kthread+0x111/0x130
::
kernel: RIP: btrfs_balance+0x12e1/0x1570 [btrfs] RSP: ffffba7d0090bde8

Reproducer:
On a mounted filesystem:

btrfs balance start --full-balance /btrfs
btrfs balance pause /btrfs
mount -o remount,ro /dev/sdb /btrfs
mount -o remount,rw /dev/sdb /btrfs

To fix this set the BTRFS_BALANCE_RESUME flag in
btrfs_resume_balance_async().
