balance_level() may return early in some cases, but these checks don't
have to be done with blocking write lock.

This puts together these checks into a helper and the benefit is to
avoid switching spinning locks to blocking locks (in these paticular
cases) which slows down btrfs overall.

Performance patches without numbers are frowned upon. You need to
substantiate your claims.

nit: I think should_balance_level seems more readable, but it could be
just me so won't insist on that.

Quick grep shows that should_ is used more frequently, so I'd go with
that.
