[PATCH] btrfs: wait for RCU readers before freeing a new device

[Mai Hai Son]

btrfs_init_new_device() adds the new device to the RCU-protected
fs_devices->devices list before completing the device-add operation. If a
later step fails, error_sysfs removes the device with list_del_rcu() and
then frees it without waiting for an RCU grace period.

A concurrent reader such as btrfs_ioctl_dev_info() may still hold the
device pointer it obtained under rcu_read_lock() and dereference it
after btrfs_free_device() has already freed it, triggering a KASAN
slab-use-after-free report:

Wait for an RCU grace period after removing the device from the list and
before freeing it.
