What this patch did in the last hunk was the rw_devices decrement, but
conditional:

So should it be reinstated in the original form? The rest of
cf89af146b7e handles unexpected device replace item during mount.

Adding the decrement is correct, but right now I'm not sure about the
corner case when teh devcie has the BTRFS_DEV_STATE_REPLACE_TGT bit set.
The state machine of the device bits and counters is not trivial so
fixing it one way or the other could lead to further syzbot reports if
we don't understand the issue.
