This patch makes seed device possible to be shared by
multiple mounted file systems. The sharing is achieved
by cloning seed device's btrfs_fs_devices structure.

This patch implements superblock duplication. Superblocks
are stored at offset 16K, 64M and 256G on every devices.
Spaces used by superblocks are preserved by the allocator,
which uses a reverse mapping function to find the logical
addresses that correspond to superblocks. Thank you,

Seed device is a special btrfs with SEEDING super flag
set and can only be mounted in read-only mode. Seed
devices allow people to create new btrfs on top of it.
The new FS contains the same contents as the seed device,
but it can be mounted in read-write mode.
This patch does the following:
1) split code in btrfs_alloc_chunk into two parts. The first part does makes
the newly allocated chunk usable, but does not do any operation that modifies
the chunk tree. The second part does the the chunk tree modifications. This
division is for the bootstrap step of adding storage to the seed device.
2) Update device management code to handle seed device.
The basic idea is: For an FS grown from seed devices, its
seed devices are put into a list. Seed devices are
opened on demand at mounting time. If any seed device is
missing or has been changed, btrfs kernel module will
refuse to mount the FS.
3) make btrfs_find_block_group not return NULL when all
block groups are read-only.

The multi-bio code is responsible for duplicating blocks in raid1 and
single spindle duplication. It has counters to make sure all of
the locations for a given extent are properly written before io completion
is returned to the higher layers.
But, it didn't always complete the same bio it was given, sometimes a
clone was completed instead. This lead to problems with the async
work queues because they saved a pointer to the bio in a struct off
bi_private.
The fix is to remember the original bio and only complete that one.

Btrfs has been using workqueues to spread the checksumming load across
other CPUs in the system. But, workqueues only schedule work on the
same CPU that queued the work, giving them a limited benefit for systems with
higher CPU counts.
This code adds a generic facility to schedule work with pools of kthreads,
and changes the bio submission code to queue bios up. The queueing is
important to make sure large numbers of procs on the system don't
turn streaming workloads into random workloads by sending IO down
concurrently.
The end result of all of this is much higher performance (and CPU usage) when
doing checksumming on large machines. Two worker pools are created,
one for writes and one for endio processing. The two could deadlock if
we tried to service both from a single pool.

Devices can change after the scan ioctls are done, and btrfs_open_devices
needs to be able to verify them as they are opened and used by the FS.

This required a few structural changes to the code that manages bdev pointers:
The VFS super block now gets an anon-bdev instead of a pointer to the
lowest bdev. This allows us to avoid swapping the super block bdev pointer
around at run time.
The code to read in the super block no longer goes through the extent
buffer interface. Things got ugly keeping the mapping constant.

This allows other code that needs to walk every device in the FS to do so
without locking against allocations.

Block headers now store the chunk tree uuid
Chunk items records the device uuid for each stripes
Device extent items record better back refs to the chunk tree
Block groups record better back refs to the chunk tree
The chunk tree format has also changed. The objectid of BTRFS_CHUNK_ITEM_KEY
used to be the logical offset of the chunk. Now it is a chunk tree id,
with the logical offset being stored in the offset field of the key.
This allows a single chunk tree to record multiple logical address spaces,
upping the number of bytes indexed by a chunk tree from 2^64 to
2^128.
