Luego continuamos con la limpieza de la ruta de error en btrfs_balance() llamando a reset_balance_state() que llamar\u00e1 a del_balance_item() para eliminar por completo el elemento de balance en el \u00e1rbol ra\u00edz. Sin embargo, durante la peque\u00f1a ventana entre set_reloc_contrl() y unset_reloc_control(), podemos tener una actualizaci\u00f3n del \u00e1rbol de subvolumen y crear un reloc_root para ese subvolumen. Luego pasamos a la btrfs_commit_transaction() final de del_balance_item() y a btrfs_update_reloc_root() dentro de commit_fs_roots(). Esa funci\u00f3n verifica si fs_info->reloc_ctl est\u00e1 en la etapa merge_reloc_tree, pero dado que fs_info->reloc_ctl es NULL, da como resultado una desreferencia de puntero NULL. [SOLUCI\u00d3N] Solo hay que a\u00f1adir una comprobaci\u00f3n adicional en fs_info->reloc_ctl dentro de btrfs_update_reloc_root(), antes de comprobar fs_info->reloc_ctl->merge_reloc_tree. El manejo de DEAD_RELOC_TREE sirve para evitar modificaciones adicionales del \u00e1rbol de reubicaci\u00f3n durante la etapa de fusi\u00f3n, pero como no hay ning\u00fan reloc_ctl, no tenemos que preocuparnos por eso."
