Fix a shutdown WARNING in bch2_dev_free caused by active write I/O references (ca->io_ref[WRITE]) on a device being freed.
The problem occurs when: - The filesystem is marked read-only (BCH_FS_rw clear in c->flags). - A subsequent operation (e.g., error handling for device removal) incorrectly tries to grant write references back to a device. - During final shutdown, the read-only flag causes the system to skip stopping write I/O references (bch2_dev_io_ref_stop(ca, WRITE)). - The leftover active write reference triggers the WARN_ON in bch2_dev_free. Prevent this by checking if the filesystem is read-only before attempting to grant write references to a device in the problematic code path. Ensure consistency between the filesystem state flag and the device I/O reference state during shutdown. --- Not sure what to put for the fixes tag so I omitted it. The bisection that Syzkaller found technically is correct but only because additional warn_on checks were added recently. The git blame shows code from 8 years ago for the specific lines being modified. Also not sure if devices should have read and write permissions (ca->mi.state = BCH_MEMBER_STATE_rw) when filesystem is in read-only mode. If that is what intended, then I believe this solution works.There could potentially be other places where a similar scenario occurs.
