Btrfs: don't allow degraded mount if too many devices are missing
The current behavior is to allow mounting or remounting a filesystem writeable in degraded mode if at least one writeable device is present. The next failed write access to a missing device which is above the tolerance of the configured level of redundancy results in an read-only enforcement. Even without this, the next time barrier_all_devices() is called and more devices are missing than tolerable, the switch to read-only mode takes place. In order to behave predictably and to provide proper feedback to the user at mount time, this patch compares the number of missing devices with the number of devices that are tolerated to be missing according to the configured RAID level. If more devices are missing than tolerated, e.g. if two devices are missing in case of RAID1, only a read-only mount and remount is allowed.
