In an instrumented testing it is possible that the mount and

   |_btrfs_open_devices(fs_devices ..) <-- stale fs_devices.

Fix this with a mutually exclusive flag BTRFS_VOL_FLAG_EXCL_OPS.

We'd need to wait until the bit is not set instead of BUSY, as the
parallel scan is not really a reason to fail the whole mount.

I'll post the patch series to address this problem today, it utilizes
the uuid_mutex in a similar way you try to do with the new bit, but it
will not lead to EBUSY.

 Ok. Shall review.

Thanks, Anand
