With the delayed ref throttling patches I started getting a lot of
"parent transid mismatch" messages when running my snapshot+balance
torture test.  This turned out to be because we will unconditionally set
the generation of a relocated tree block to the current transaction.

This is generally true, but especially for mid-tree nodes we could have
cow'ed the block in a previous transaction, and only actually update
it's parents in a completely different transaction.  Thus we end up with
a parent transid that is in the future of the actual block.  Fix this by
using the generation for the extent buffer we're pointing to.

Fixes: 5d4f98a28c7d ("Btrfs: Mixed back reference  (FORWARD ROLLING FORMAT CHANGE)")

Dave hold off on this, there's something odd happening that I need to figure 
out.  Thanks,

Josef

Understood. The patch hasn't been in any of the development branches so
far.
