btrfs: ensure that file descriptor used with subvol ioctls is a dir



If the subvol/snapshot create/destroy ioctls are passed a regular file
with execute permissions set, we'll eventually Oops while trying to do
inode->i_op->lookup via lookup_one_len.

This patch ensures that the file descriptor refers to a directory.

Fixes: 76dda93c (Btrfs: add snapshot/subvolume destroy ioctl)
