This commit continues hardening the scanning code to handle cases where power loss could have caused disks in a multi-disk filesystem to be in inconsistent state. Namely handle the situation that can occur when some of the disks in multi-disk fs have completed their fsid change i.e they have METADATA_UUID incompat flag set, have cleared the CHANGING_FSID_V2 flag and their fsid/metadata_uuid are different. At the same time the other half of the disks will have their fsid/metadata_uuid unchanged and will only have CHANGING_FSID_V2 flag. This is handled by introducing code in the scan path which: a) Handles the case when a device with CHANGING_FSID_V2 flag is scanned and as a result btrfs_fs_devices is created with matching fsid/metdata_uuid. Subsequently, when a device with completed fsid change is scanned it will detect this via the new code in find_fsid i.e that such an fs_devices exist that fsid_change flag is set to true, it's metadata_uuid/fsid match and the metadata_uuid of the scanned device matches that of the fs_devices. In this case, it's important to note that the devices which has its fsid change completed will have a higher generation number than the device with FSID_CHANGING_V2 flag set, so its superblock block will be used during mount. To prevent an assertion triggering because the sb used for mounting will have differing fsid/metadata_uuid than the ones in the fs_devices struct also add code in device_list_add which overwrites the values in fs_devices. b) Alternatively we can end up with a device that completed its fsid change be scanned first which will create the respective btrfs_fs_devices struct with differing fsid/metadata_uuid. In this case when a device with FSID_CHANGING_V2 flag set is scanned it will call the newly added find_fsid_inprogress function which will return the correct fs_devices.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
