David Sterba 81ffd56b57 btrfs: fix mount and ioctl device scan ioctl race
Technically this extends the critical section covered by uuid_mutex to:

- parse early mount options -- here we can call device scan on paths
  that can be passed as 'device=/dev/...'

- scan the device passed to mount

- open the devices related to the fs_devices -- this increases
  fs_devices::opened

The race can happen when mount calls one of the scans and there's
another one called eg. by mkfs or 'btrfs dev scan':

Mount                                  Scan
-----                                  ----
scan_one_device (dev1, fsid1)
                                       scan_one_device (dev2, fsid1)
				           add the device
					   free stale devices
					       fsid1 fs_devices::opened == 0
					           find fsid1:dev1
					           free fsid1:dev1
					           if it's the last one,
					            free fs_devices of fsid1
						    too

open_devices (dev1, fsid1)
   dev1 not found

When fixed, the uuid mutex will make sure that mount will increase
fs_devices::opened and this will not be touched by the racing scan
ioctl.

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
