At the very end of btrfs_rename_exchange(), in case an error happened, we
are checking if 'new_inode' is NULL, but that is not needed since during a
rename exchange, unlike regular renames, 'new_inode' can never be NULL,
and if it were, we would have a crashed much earlier when we dereference it
multiple times.

So remove the check because it is not necessary and because it is causing
static checkers to emit a warning. I probably introduced the check by
copy-pasting similar code from btrfs_rename(), where 'new_inode' can be
NULL, in commit 86e8aa0e772cab ("Btrfs: unpin logs if rename exchange
operation fails").
