Subject: [PATCH] btrfs: sysfs: use NOFS for device creation

Dave hit this splat during testing btrfs/078:

  other info that might help us debug this:

  Chain exists of:
    &delayed_node->mutex --> &fs_info->chunk_mutex --> fs_reclaim

   Possible unsafe locking scenario:

	 CPU0                    CPU1
	 ----                    ----
    lock(fs_reclaim);
				 lock(&fs_info->chunk_mutex);
				 lock(fs_reclaim);
    lock(&delayed_node->mutex);

This is because we're holding the chunk_mutex while adding this device
and adding its sysfs entries.  We actually hold different locks in
different places when calling this function, the dev_replace semaphore
for instance in dev replace, so instead of moving this call around
simply wrap it's operations in NOFS.
