This is normally fine, but if we are\ndoing a read-repair meanwhile the fs flips RO due to a critical error,\nwe can enter btrfs_repair_io_failure() with super block set to\nread-only, thus triggering the above crash.\n\n[FIX]\nJust replace the ASSERT() with a proper return if the fs is already\nread-only."
