[PATCH 5/9 v2] btrfs-progs: btrfs_scan_one_dir not to skip links when /dev/mapper is provided

[Anand Jain <anand.jain@oracle.com>]

we would need btrfs_scan_one_dir to san devs under /dev/mapper,
but /dev/mapper has links to the actual devs and current implementation
of btrfs_scan_one_dir skips links so it does not pick any
links under /dev/mapper. skipping links is fine when scanning whole of
/dev. But when we just want to scan /dev/mapper we want to avoid skipping
links otherwise we would be left with nothing.

This patch just adds the check if we are scanning devs
ONLY under /dev/mapper if when so it will not skip links

Thanks
