3.2.68-rt99-rc2 stable review patch.
If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

Trivially repeatable deadlock is cured by enabling lockdep code in
btrfs_clear_path_blocking() as suggested by Chris Mason.  He also
suggested restricting blocking reader count to one, and not allowing
a spinning reader while blocking reader exists.  This has proven to
be unnecessary, the strict lock order enforcement is enough.. or
rather that's my box's opinion after long hours of hard pounding.

Note: extent-tree.c bit is additional recommendation from Chris
      Mason, split into a separate patch after discussion.
