Anand Jain b4656b25c8 btrfs: add info when mount fails due to stale replace target
commit f2c3bec215694fb8bc0ef5010f2a758d1906fc2d upstream.

If the replace target device reappears after the suspended replace is
cancelled, it blocks the mount operation as it can't find the matching
replace-item in the metadata. As shown below,

   BTRFS error (device sda5): replace devid present without an active replace item

To overcome this situation, the user can run the command

   btrfs device scan --forget <replace target device>

and try the mount command again. And also, to avoid repeating the issue,
superblock on the devid=0 must be wiped.

   wipefs -a device-path-to-devid=0.

This patch adds some info when this situation occurs.

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.
