The local 'b' variable is only used to directly read values from passed
extent buffer. So eliminate  it and directly use the input parameter. Furthermore
this shrinks the size of the following functions:

./scripts/bloat-o-meter ctree.orig fs/btrfs/ctree.o
add/remove: 0/0 grow/shrink: 0/2 up/down: 0/-73 (-73)
Function                                     old     new   delta
read_block_for_search.isra                   876     871      -5
push_node_left                              1112    1044     -68
Total: Before=50348, After=50275, chg -0.14%

Added to misc-next, thanks.

It's interesting how such trivial and obvious change can improve the
code generation. The removed indirection resulted in smaller function
push_node_left that is not even called directly, but as there are lot of
static helpers it's some intra-procedural pass that can utilize the
reduced variable indirection.
