When a struct btrfs_fs_devices was being torn down by
btrfs_close_devices(), there was an invalidated pointer in the global
list fs_uuids which still pointed to it; if a device was closed and
then reopened (which btrfs-convert does), freed memory would be
accessed.

This was found using ThreadSanitizer (pretty much doing what
AddressSanitizer would, but not exiting after the first failure).
To reproduce, build with -fsanitize=thread and run 'make test'.
Representative output is below.

This change makes the current tests TSan-clean.

It looks good to me.

I confirmed ...

 - btrfs_fs_devices is linked to fs_uuids in device_list_add().
 - However, there is no list_del(btrfs_fs_devices) from
   fs_uuids at all.
 - There is at least one use-after-free of btrfs_fs_devices
   as you said (btrfs-convert).

P.S.
I suggest you to add "btrfs-progs: " or "btrfs:" tag to mail subject
from the next time.

Thanks,
Satoru
