If the device is not present at the time of (-o degrade) mount,
the mount context will create a dummy missing struct btrfs_device.
Later this device may reappear after the FS is mounted and
then device is included in the device list but it missed the
open_device part. So this patch handles that case by going
through the open_device steps which this device missed and finally
adds to the device alloc list.

So now with this patch, to bring back the missing device user can run,

   btrfs dev scan <path-of-missing-device>

Without this kernel patch, even though 'btrfs fi show' and 'btrfs
dev ready' would tell you that missing device has reappeared
successfully but actually in kernel FS layer it didn't.

This patch needs:
 [PATCH 0/4]  factor __btrfs_open_devices()
v3:
The check for missing in the device_list_add() is now a another
patch as its not related.
 btrfs: fix inconsistency during missing device rejoin

v2:
Add more comments.
Add more change log.
Add to check if device missing is set, to handle the case
dev open fail and user will rerun the dev scan.

So how is scrub supposed to be initiated - automatically or by the user
since it's assumed he will have seen the message that a device has been
added? Reading the comment I'd expect scrub is kicked automatically.

why do we have to warn, this is considered to be a "good" thing so
perhaps btrfs_info?

Can a device that is missing really be writable? So we have 2 cases
where we add a missing device:

1. Is via add_missing_dev which sets dev_state_missing so writable will
be false.

2. In read_one_dev when we have successfully found the device from
btrfs_find_device but it doesn't have a ->bdev member, in which case we
don't really clear the writable fact (but perhaps we should) ?

Overall the lifecycle of these flags is not very clear ;\

  Oh. Right. it isn't a good idea to reset degraded option (below) in
  this thread, instead let scrub do it. Then user can notice too. In fact
  even if all the devices are present but if chunks does not match to
  what user has configured for, then its a degraded volume.

  When I was resetting the degraded option below. I had that question,
  but now the thought process and reasoning is satisfying. Will update.
  Thanks.

  you are right, it should be btrfs_info. Will change.

  Writeable flag is more about seed device which isn't a writeable
  device. btrfs_open_one_device() does reset writeable flag.

  Yep. Its bit overlapping and needs cleanup.

Thanks, Anand
