If we open a file with O_TMPFILE, don't do any further operation on
it (so that the inode item isn't updated) and then force a transaction
commit, we get a persisted inode item with a link count of 1, and not 0
as it should be.
Steps to reproduce it (requires a modern xfs_io with -T support):
$ mkfs.btrfs -f /dev/sdd
$ mount -o /dev/sdd /mnt
$ xfs_io -T /mnt &
$ sync
Then btrfs-debug-tree shows the inode item with a link count of 1:
$ btrfs-debug-tree /dev/sdd
(...)
