[BUG]
The following script will cause false alert on devid check.
#!/bin/bash
dev1=/dev/test/test
dev2=/dev/test/scratch1
mnt=/mnt/btrfs
umount $dev1 &> /dev/null
umount $dev2 &> /dev/null
umount $mnt &> /dev/null
mkfs.btrfs -f $dev1
mount $dev1 $mnt
_fail()
{
echo "!!! FAILED !!!"
exit 1
}
for ((i = 0; i < 4096; i++)); do
btrfs dev add -f $dev2 $mnt || _fail
btrfs dev del $dev1 $mnt || _fail
dev_tmp=$dev1
dev1=$dev2
dev2=$dev_tmp
done
[CAUSE]
Tree-checker uses BTRFS_MAX_DEVS() and BTRFS_MAX_DEVS_SYS_CHUNK() as
upper limit for devid. But we can have devid holes just like above
script.
So the check for devid is incorrect and could cause false alert.
[FIX]
Just remove the whole devid check. We don't have any hard requirement
for devid assignment.
Furthermore, even devid could get corrupted by a bitflip, we still have
dev extents verification at mount time, so corrupted data won't sneak
in.
This fixes fstests btrfs/194.

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 Restructured Text 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.
