btrfs: switch to RCU for device traversal in btrfs_ioctl_dev_info
We don't need to use the mutex as we do not modify the devices nor the list itself and just read some information: does not change during device lifetime: - devid - uuid - name (ie. the path) may change in parallel to the ioctl call, but can lead only to reporting inacurracy: - bytes_used - total_bytes Signed-off-by: David Sterba <dsterba@suse.com>
