+Subject: btrfs: don't start transaction when joining with TRANS_JOIN_NOSTART
+
+From: Filipe Manana <fdmanana@suse.com>
+
+commit 4490e803e1fe9fab8db5025e44e23b55df54078b upstream.
+
+When joining a transaction with TRANS_JOIN_NOSTART, if we don't find a
+running transaction we end up creating one. This goes against the purpose
+of TRANS_JOIN_NOSTART which is to join a running transaction if its state
+is at or below the state TRANS_STATE_COMMIT_START, otherwise return an
+-ENOENT error and don't start a new transaction. So fix this to not create
+a new transaction if there's no running transaction at or below that
+state.
