Anand Jain 9ab0c653ef btrfs: harden identification of a stale device
commit 770c79fb65506fc7c16459855c3839429f46cb32 upstream.

Identifying and removing the stale device from the fs_uuids list is done
by btrfs_free_stale_devices().  btrfs_free_stale_devices() in turn
depends on device_path_matched() to check if the device appears in more
than one btrfs_device structure.

The matching of the device happens by its path, the device path. However,
when device mapper is in use, the dm device paths are nothing but a link
to the actual block device, which leads to the device_path_matched()
failing to match.

Fix this by matching the dev_t as provided by lookup_bdev() instead of
plain string compare of the device paths.

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.
