xfs: fix perag structure refcounting error when scrub fails



The kernel test robot found the following bug when running xfs/355 to
scrub a bmap btree:

The unusual handling of errors while initializing struct xchk_ag is the
root cause here.  Since the beginning of xfs_scrub, the goal of
xchk_ag_read_headers has been to read all three AG header buffers and
attach them both to the xchk_ag structure and the scrub transaction.
Corruption errors on any of the three headers doesn't necessarily
trigger an immediate return to userspace, because xfs_scrub can also
tell us to /fix/ the problem.

In other words, it's possible for the xchk_ag init functions to return
an error code and a partially filled out structure so that scrub can use
however much information it managed to pull.  Before 5.15, it was
sufficient to cancel (or commit) the scrub transaction on the way out of
the scrub code to release the buffers.

Ccommit 48c6615c added a reference to the perag structure to struct
xchk_ag.  Since perag structures are not attached to transactions like
buffers are, this adds the requirement that the perag ref be released
explicitly.  The scrub teardown function xchk_teardown was amended to do
this for the xchk_ag embedded in struct xfs_scrub.

Unfortunately, I forgot that certain parts of the scrub code probe
multiple AGs and therefore handle the initialization and cleanup on
their own.  Specifically, the bmbt scrubber will initialize it long
enough to cross-reference AG metadata for btree blocks and for the
extent mappings in the bmbt.

If one of the AG headers is corrupt, the init function returns with a
live perag structure reference and some of the AG header buffers.  If an
error occurs, the cross referencing will be noted as XCORRUPTion and
skipped, but the main scrub process will move on to the next record.
It is now necessary to release the perag reference before we try to
analyze something from a different AG, or else we'll trip over the
assertion noted above.
