I believe this is buggy since it will be masking errors. We call
btrfs_read_dev_super in open_ctree_with_broken_chunk if the function
returns 1 we eventually exit as: return ERR_PTR(ret); And then perform
IS_ERR on the returned value. IS_ERR is essentially:
((x) >= (unsigned long)-MAX_ERRNO) where x could be 1 and MAX_ERRNO is 4095

So you just broke all functions which return the ret of
btrfs_read_dev_super as ERR_PTR.
