Its a logical bug if we hit fs_devices::num_devices == 1 and if the
replace is running because, as fs_devices::num_devices counts the in memory
devices, so it should include the replace target which is running as
indicated by the flag. If this happens return the -EINVAL back.

Hi,
 As it fixes the BUG_ON I have spun a new patch for this.
 Instead of -EINVAL should we use ASSERT?

Why do you resort to this travesty of returning the value in an input
parameter? Having the function return int, assuming that we will always
have a positive device num and in case of an error return a negative
value. In the worst case when we get to see a btrfs fs consisting of 2
billion devices then we can start worrying that an int here won't do it.

The canonical form, used across the whole code base of btrfs, for
checking for an error is 'if (ret <0)' as such please stick to it in
this and all future patches.

(I have a vague recollection this is not the first time I have given you
this feedback)
