Btrfs: device_replace: fix deadlock for nocow case
commit cb7ab021 cause a following deadlock found by xfstests,btrfs/011: Thread1 is commiting transaction which is blocked at btrfs_scrub_pause(). Thread2 is calling btrfs_file_aio_write() which has held inode's @i_mutex and commit transaction(blocked because Thread1 is committing transaction). Thread3 is copy_nocow_page worker which will also try to hold inode @i_mutex, so thread3 will wait Thread1 finished. Thread4 is waiting pending workers finished which will wait Thread3 finished. So the problem is like this: Thread1--->Thread4--->Thread3--->Thread2---->Thread1 Deadlock happens! we fix it by letting Thread1 go firstly, which means we won't block transaction commit while we are waiting pending workers finished.
