btrfs: add extra error messages to cover non-ENOMEM errors from device_add_list()
[BUG] When test case btrfs/219 (aka, mount a registered device but with a lower generation) failed, there is not any useful information for the end user to find out what's going wrong. The mount failure just looks like this: # mount -o loop /tmp/219.img2 /mnt/btrfs/ mount: /mnt/btrfs: mount(2) system call failed: File exists. dmesg(1) may have more information after failed mount system call. While the dmesg contains nothing but the loop device change: loop1: detected capacity change from 0 to 524288 [CAUSE] In device_list_add() we have a lot of extra checks to reject invalid cases. That function also contains the regular device scan result like the following prompt: BTRFS: device fsid 6222333e-f9f1-47e6-b306-55ddd4dcaef4 devid 1 transid 8 /dev/loop0 scanned by systemd-udevd (3027) But unfortunately not all errors have their own error messages, thus if we hit something wrong in device_add_list(), there may be no error messages at all. [FIX] Add errors message for all non-ENOMEM errors. For ENOMEM, I'd say we're in a much worse situation, and there should be some OOM messages way before our call sites.
