Hi,

please pull a few more patches that did not go to pull #1 for 4.7, minor
cleanups and fixes. Thanks.

Thanks Dave!  Trying to figure out why we're failing btrfs/011, but I
don't see how it could be related to this bunch.  I'll nail it down.

011 passes here, there are some unrelated soft-failures (mismatching
output with new progs). I'm now testing a branch without "btrfs: scrub:
Set bbio to NULL before calling btrfs_map_block", that seems to be the
only likely offender.

I'm getting errors from btrfs fi show -d, after the very last round of
device replaces.  A little extra debugging:

bytenr mismatch, want=4332716032, have=0
ERROR: cannot read chunk root
ERROR reading /dev/vdh
failed /dev/vdh
>>
Which is cute because the very next command we run fscks /dev/vdh and
succeeds.

Checked the code paths both btrfs fi show -d and btrfs check,
both are calling flush during relative open_ctree in progs.

However the flush is called after we have read superblock. That
means the read_superblock during 'show' cli (only) will read superblock
without flush, and 'check' won't, because 011 calls 'check' after
'show'. But it still does not explain the above error, which is
during open_ctree not at read superblock. Remains strange case as
of now.

Also. I can't reproduce.

So the page cache is stale and this isn't related to any of our patches.

close_ctree() calls into btrfs_close_devices(), which calls
btrfs_close_one_device(), which uses:

call_rcu(&device->rcu, free_device);

close_ctree() also does an rcu_barrier() to make sure and wait for
free_device() to finish.

But, free_device() just puts the work into schedule_work(), so we don't
know for sure the blkdev_put is done when we exit.

 Right, saw that before. Any idea why its like that ? Or if it
 should be fixed?

It's been this way for a while, so its not holding up my pull request to
Linus.  But I'll fix it up.

 Yes. Its been like that.

Thanks, Anand
