As a result, it is possible for a\nblock group to go unused and have 'btrfs_mark_bg_unused' called on it\nconcurrently with 'btrfs_create_pending_block_groups'. This causes a\nnumber of issues, which were fixed with the block group flag\n'BLOCK_GROUP_FLAG_NEW'.\nHowever, this fix is not quite complete.
