From: Anand Jain <anand.j...@oracle.com> At the end of unmount/dev-delete, if the device exclusive open is not actually closed, then there might be a race with another program in the userland who is trying to open the device in exclusive mode and it may fail for eg: unmount /btrfs; fsck /dev/x btrfs dev del /dev/x /btrfs; fsck /dev/x so here background blkdev_put() is not a choice
