This happens because btrfs_next_old_leaf searches down to our current
key, and then walks up the path until we can move to the next slot, and
then reads back down the path so we get the next leaf.
However it doesn't unlock any lower levels until it replaces them with
the new extent buffer. This is technically fine, but of course causes
lockdep to complain, because we could be holding locks on lower levels
while locking upper levels.
Fix this by dropping all nodes below the level that we use as our new
starting point before we start reading back down the path. This also
allows us to drop the nested/recursive locking magic, because we're no
longer locking two nodes at the same level anymore.
