When recovering a relocation, if we run into a reloc root that has 0 refs we simply add it to the reloc_control->reloc_roots list, and then clean it up later. The problem with this is __del_reloc_root() doesn't do anything if the root isn't in the radix tree, which in this case it won't be because we never call __add_reloc_root() on the reloc_root. This exit condition simply isn't correct really. During normal operation we can remove ourselves from the rb tree and then we're meant to clean up later at merge_reloc_roots() time, and this happens correctly. During recovery we're depending on free_reloc_roots() to drop our references, but we're short-circuiting. Fix this by continuing to check if we're on the list and dropping ourselves from the reloc_control root list and dropping our reference appropriately. Change the corresponding BUG_ON() to an ASSERT() that does the correct thing if we aren't in the rb tree.

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.
