btrfs: allocate new inode in NOFS context

A user reported a lockdep splat

 WARNING: possible circular locking dependency detected

 kswapd0/711 is trying to acquire lock:
 000000007777a663 (sb_internal){.+.+}, at: start_transaction+0x3a8/0x500

but task is already holding lock:
 000000000ba86300 (fs_reclaim){+.+.}, at: __fs_reclaim_acquire+0x0/0x30

which lock already depends on the new lock.

the existing dependency chain (in reverse order) is:

This is because btrfs_new_inode() calls new_inode() under the
transaction.  We could probably move the new_inode() outside of this but
for now just wrap it in memalloc_nofs_save().
