other info that might help us debug this:

Chain exists of:
  &fs_devs->device_list_mutex --> &fs_info->chunk_mutex --> btrfs-chunk-00

 Possible unsafe locking scenario:

       CPU0                    CPU1
       ----                    ----
  lock(btrfs-chunk-00);
                               lock(&fs_info->chunk_mutex);
                               lock(btrfs-chunk-00);
  lock(&fs_devs->device_list_mutex);

It is because we take the ->device_list_mutex in this path while holding
onto the tree locks in the chunk root.  However we do not need the lock
here, because we're already holding onto the uuid_mutex, and in fact
have removed all other uses of the ->device_list_mutex in this path
because of this.  Remove the ->device_list_mutex locking here, add an
assert for the uuid_mutex and the problem is fixed.

I'll pick Anand's version, it adds one more lock annotation and has a
bit more verbose explanation.
