btrfs_transaction::state is protected by btrfs_fs_info::trans_lock and all accesses to this variable should be synchornized by it. However, there are 2 exceptions, namely checking if currently running transaction has entered its commit phase in start_transaction and in btrfs_should_end_transaction. Annotate those 2, unlocked accesses with READ_ONCE respectively. Also remove the full memory barrier in start_transaction as it provides no ordering guarantees due to being unpaired. All other accsess to transaction state happen under trans_lock being held.
