Hi all,

I have a collection of three (was 4) 1-2TB devices with data and
metadata in a RAID1 mirror.  Last night I was struck by the Click of
Death on an old Samsung drive.

I removed the device from the system, rebooted and mounted the volume
with `-o degraded` and the file system seems fine and usable.  I'm
waiting on a replacement, drive but want to remove the old drive and
re-balance in the meantime.

How do I remove the missing device?  I tried the `btrfs device delete
missing /mnt` but was greeted with "ERROR: missing is not a block
device".  A quick look at that btrfs-progs git repo shows that
`stat("missing")` is called, which of course fails since missing isn't
a block device.  Nothing other then `btrfs replace` seemed intuitive
and all the docs mention the older command.  What's the move?

Thanks!
- Kyle
