Very often our extent buffer's header generation doesn't match the current
transaction's id or it is also referenced by other trees (snapshots), so
we don't need the corresponding block group cache object. Therefore only
search for it if we are going to use it, so we avoid an unnecessary search
in the block groups rbtree (and acquiring and releasing its spinlock).

Freeing a tree block is performed when COWing or deleting a node/leaf,
which implies we are holding the node/leaf's parent node lock, therefore
reducing the amount of time spent when freeing a tree block helps reducing
the amount of time we are holding the parent node's lock.

For example, for a run of xfstests/generic/083, the block group cache
object was needed only 682 times for a total of 226691 calls to free
a tree block.
