Btrfs: Fix async thread shutdown race
It was possible for an async worker thread to be selected to
receive a new work item, but exit before the work item was
actually placed into that thread's work list.
This commit fixes the race by incrementing the num_pending
counter earlier, and making sure to check the number of pending
work items before a thread exits.
