btrfs: Fix a lockdep warning when running xfstest.
The following lockdep warning is triggered during xfstests:
[ 1702.980872] =========================================================
[ 1702.981181] [ INFO: possible irq lock inversion dependency detected ]
[ 1702.981482] 3.18.0-rc1 torvalds#27 Not tainted
[ 1702.981781] ---------------------------------------------------------
[ 1702.982095] kswapd0/77 just changed the state of lock:
[ 1702.982415] (&delayed_node->mutex){+.+.-.}, at: [<ffffffffa03b0b51>] __btrfs_release_delayed_node+0x41/0x1f0 [btrfs]
[ 1702.982794] but this lock took another, RECLAIM_FS-unsafe lock in the past:
[ 1702.983160] (&fs_info->dev_replace.lock){+.+.+.}
and interrupts could create inverse lock ordering between them.
[ 1702.984675]
other info that might help us debug this:
[ 1702.985524] Chain exists of:
&delayed_node->mutex --> &found->groups_sem --> &fs_info->dev_replace.lock
[ 1702.986799] Possible interrupt unsafe locking scenario:

*** DEADLOCK ***
It is because the btrfs_kobj_{add/rm}_device() will call memory
allocation with GFP_KERNEL,
which may flush fs page cache to free space, waiting for it self to do
the commit, causing the deadlock.
To solve the problem, move btrfs_kobj_{add/rm}_device() out of the
dev_replace lock range, also involing split the
btrfs_rm_dev_replace_srcdev() function into remove and free parts.
Now only btrfs_rm_dev_replace_remove_srcdev() is called in dev_replace
lock range, and kobj_{add/rm} and btrfs_rm_dev_replace_free_srcdev() are
called out of the lock range.
