This patch addresses an issue that causes fiemap to falsely
report a shared extent.  The test case is as follows:

# cat do_xfs_io
xfs_io -f -d -c "pwrite -b 16k 0 64k" -c "fiemap -v" /media/scratch/file5
sync
xfs_io  -c "fiemap -v" /media/scratch/file5

which gives the resulting output:

# . do_xfs_io
wrote 65536/65536 bytes at offset 0
64 KiB, 4 ops; 0.0000 sec (121.359 MiB/sec and 7766.9903 ops/sec)
/media/scratch/file5:
 EXT: FILE-OFFSET      BLOCK-RANGE      TOTAL FLAGS
   0: [0..127]:        24576..24703       128 0x2001
/media/scratch/file5:
 EXT: FILE-OFFSET      BLOCK-RANGE      TOTAL FLAGS
   0: [0..127]:        24576..24703       128   0x1

This is because btrfs_check_shared calls find_parent_nodes
repeatedly in a loop, passing a share_check struct to report
the count of shared extent. But btrfs_check_shared does not
re-initialize the count value to zero for subsequent calls
from the loop, resulting in a false share count value. This
is a regressive behavior from 4.13.

With proper re-initialization the test result is as follows:

# . do_xfs_io
wrote 65536/65536 bytes at offset 0
64 KiB, 4 ops; 0.0000 sec (110.035 MiB/sec and 7042.2535 ops/sec)
/media/scratch/file5:
 EXT: FILE-OFFSET      BLOCK-RANGE      TOTAL FLAGS
   0: [0..127]:        24576..24703       128   0x1
/media/scratch/file5:
 EXT: FILE-OFFSET      BLOCK-RANGE      TOTAL FLAGS
   0: [0..127]:        24576..24703       128   0x1

which corrects the regression.
