While doing error injection I would sometimes get a corrupt file system. This is because I was injecting errors at btrfs_search_slot, but would only do it one time per stack. This uncovered a problem in commit_fs_roots, where if we get an error we would just break. However we're in a nested loop, the first loop being a loop to find all the dirty fs roots, and then subsequent root updates would succeed clearing the error value. This isn't likely to happen in real scenarios, however we could potentially get a random ENOMEM once and then not again, and we'd end up with a corrupted file system. Fix this by moving the error checking around a bit to the main loop, as this is the only place where something will fail, and return the error as soon as it occurs. With this patch my reproducer no longer corrupts the file system.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
