WARNON(!RBEMPTYROOT( &transaction->delayedrefs.dirtyextentroot)); (...) } The warning happens because btrfsqgroupdestroyextentrecords(), called in the transaction abort path, we free all entries from the rbtree "dirtyextentroot" with rbtreepostorderforeachentrysafe(), but we don't actually empty the rbtree - it's still pointing to nodes that were freed. So set the rbtree's root node to NULL to avoid this warning (assign RBROOT).
