Anand Jain c124706900 btrfs: fix lockdep warning while mounting sprout fs
Following test case reproduces lockdep warning.

  Test case:

  $ mkfs.btrfs -f <dev1>
  $ btrfstune -S 1 <dev1>
  $ mount <dev1> <mnt>
  $ btrfs device add <dev2> <mnt> -f
  $ umount <mnt>
  $ mount <dev2> <mnt>
  $ umount <mnt>

The warning claims a possible ABBA deadlock between the threads
initiated by [#1] btrfs device add and [#0] the mount.

   stack backtrace:
  [ 540.744712] CPU: 2 PID: 2515 Comm: mount Not tainted 5.11.0-rc7+ #5

But the device_list_mutex in clone_fs_devices() is redundant, as
explained below.  Two threads [1]  and [2] (below) could lead to
clone_fs_device().

  [1]
  open_ctree <== mount sprout fs
   btrfs_read_chunk_tree()
    mutex_lock(&uuid_mutex) <== global lock
    read_one_dev()
     open_seed_devices()
      clone_fs_devices() <== seed fs_devices
       mutex_lock(&orig->device_list_mutex) <== seed fs_devices

  [2]
  btrfs_init_new_device() <== sprouting
   mutex_lock(&uuid_mutex); <== global lock
   btrfs_prepare_sprout()
     lockdep_assert_held(&uuid_mutex)
     clone_fs_devices(seed_fs_device) <== seed fs_devices

Both of these threads hold uuid_mutex which is sufficient to protect
getting the seed device(s) freed while we are trying to clone it for
sprouting [2] or mounting a sprout [1] (as above). A mounted seed device
can not free/write/replace because it is read-only. An unmounted seed
device can be freed by btrfs_free_stale_devices(), but it needs
uuid_mutex.  So this patch removes the unnecessary device_list_mutex in
clone_fs_devices().  And adds a lockdep_assert_held(&uuid_mutex) in
clone_fs_devices().

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.

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.
