Btrfs: avoid potential super block corruption

The data in fs_info->super_for_commit are zeros before the
first transaction commit. If tree log sync and system crash
both occur before the first transaction commit, super block
will get corrupted.

This fixes it by properly filling in the super_for_commit field at
open time.
