Btrfs: avoid races between super writeout and device list updates
On multi-device filesystems, btrfs writes supers to all of the devices before considering a sync complete. There wasn't any additional locking between super writeout and the device list management code because device management was done inside a transaction and super writeout only happened with no transation writers running. With the btrfs fsync log and other async transaction updates, this has been racey for some time. This adds a mutex to protect the device list. The existing volume mutex could not be reused due to transaction lock ordering requirements. Signed-off-by: Chris Mason <chris.mason@oracle.com>
