More specifically, the only way we'd hit that case would
involve an unqueued buffer (in xfs_buf_unlock()) getting
queued before bt_delwrite_lock could be acquired (in
xfs_buf_delwri_queue()). But that can't happen because
the buffer is locked the entire time between the check
in xfs_buf_unlock() and the one in xfs_buf_delwri_queue().
(Right?)
