Subject: [PATCH] btrfs: Remove unused variable in btrfs_{start,write}_dirty_block_groups()

Clang's version of -Wunused-but-set-variable recently gained support for
unary operations, which reveals two unused variables:

fs/btrfs/block-group.c:2949:6: error: variable 'num_started' set but not used [-Werror,-Wunused-but-set-variable]
int num_started = 0;
^
fs/btrfs/block-group.c:3116:6: error: variable 'num_started' set but not used [-Werror,-Wunused-but-set-variable]
int num_started = 0;
^
2 errors generated.

These variables appear to be unused from their introduction, so just
remove them to silence the warnings.

I am requesting a stable backport because this is visible with
allmodconfig, which enables CONFIG_WERROR, breaking the build.

To quote Linus:

"EVERYBODY should have CONFIG_WERROR=y on at least x86-64 and other
serious architectures, unless you have some completely random
experimental (and broken) compiler."
