The code responsible for reading and initializing tree roots is scattered in open_ctree among 2 labels, emulating a loop. This is rather confusing to reason about. Instead, factor the code to a new function, init_tree_roots which implements the same logical flow. There are a couple of notable differences, namely: * Instead of using next_backup_root it's using the newly introduced read_backup_root. * If read_backup_root returns an error init_tree_roots propagates the error and there is no special handling of that case e.g. the code jumps straight to 'fail_tree_roots' label. The old code, however, was (erroneously) jumping to 'fail_block_groups' label if next_backup_root did fail, this was unnecessary since the tree roots init logic doesn't modify the state of block groups.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
