btrfs_start_transaction: wait for commits in progress to finish
btrfs_commit_transaction has to loop waiting for any writers in the transaction to finish before it can proceed. btrfs_start_transaction should be polite and not join a transaction that is in the process of being finished off. There are a few places that can't wait, basically the ones doing IO that might be needed to finish the transaction. For them, btrfs_join_transaction is added.
