If one of btrfs's devices was pulled out and we've replaced it with a
new one, then they have the same uuid.

If that device gets reconnected, 'btrfs filesystem show' will show the
stale one instead of the new one, but on kernel side btrfs has a fix
to not include the stale one, this could confuse users as people may
monitor btrfs by running that cli.

This does the similar thing to what kernel side has done.

You pass in 5 parameters but have only 4 formatting strings. I don't see
the same happening on other warning() invocations? Perhaps the last
found_transid is not necessary?

  I missed that. Sorry.

Thanks, Anand

Oh, thanks for the comments.

I messed it up again, what I was testing is warning("blabla",
device->name, device->generation, path, found_transid), but later I
updated the message but got the parameters wrong.

Will do a v2.
