Mark Harmstone 3d1267475b btrfs: don't allow adding block device of less than 1 MB
Commit 15ae0410c37a79 ("btrfs-progs: add error handling for
device_get_partition_size_fd_stat()") in btrfs-progs inadvertently
changed it so that if the BLKGETSIZE64 ioctl on a block device returned
a size of 0, this was no longer seen as an error condition.

Unfortunately this is how disconnected NBD devices behave, meaning that
with btrfs-progs 6.16 it's now possible to add a device you can't
remove:

  # btrfs device add /dev/nbd0 /root/temp
  # btrfs device remove /dev/nbd0 /root/temp
  ERROR: error removing device '/dev/nbd0': Invalid argument

This check should always have been done kernel-side anyway, so add a
check in btrfs_init_new_device() that the new device doesn't have a size
less than BTRFS_DEVICE_RANGE_RESERVED (i.e. 1 MB).

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
