This is because btrfs_read_chunk_tree() can come upon DEV_EXTENT's and
then read the device, which takes the device_list_mutex. The
device_list_mutex needs to be taken before the chunk_mutex, so this is a
problem. We only really need the chunk mutex around adding the chunk,
so move the mutex around read_one_chunk.

An argument could be made that we don't even need the chunk_mutex here
as it's during mount, and we are protected by various other locks.
However we already have special rules for ->device_list_mutex, and I'd
rather not have another special case for ->chunk_mutex.
