3.17-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

commit 12b894cb288d57292b01cf158177b6d5c89a6272 upstream.

btrfs-transacion:5657
[stack snip]
btrfs_bio_map()
    btrfs_bio_counter_inc_blocked()
        percpu_counter_inc(&fs_info->bio_counter)  ###bio_counter > 0(A)
        __btrfs_bio_map()
            btrfs_dev_replace_lock()
                mutex_lock(dev_replace->lock)      ###wait mutex(B)

btrfs:32612
[stack snip]
btrfs_dev_replace_start()
    btrfs_dev_replace_lock()
        mutex_lock(dev_replace->lock)              ###hold mutex(B)
    btrfs_dev_replace_finishing()
        btrfs_rm_dev_replace_blocked()
            wait until percpu_counter_sum == 0     ###wait on bio_counter(A)

This bug can be triggered quite easily by the following test script:
http://pastebin.com/MQmb37Cy

This patch will fix the ABBA problem by calling
btrfs_dev_replace_unlock() before btrfs_rm_dev_replace_blocked().

The consistency of btrfs devices list and their superblocks is protected
by device_list_mutex, not btrfs_dev_replace_lock/unlock().
So it is safe the move btrfs_dev_replace_unlock() before
btrfs_rm_dev_replace_blocked().
