[PATCH] Btrfs: check return value of open_bdev_exclusive properly
Hit this problem while testing RAID1 failure stuff. open_bdev_exclusive returns
ERR_PTR(), not NULL. So change the return value properly. This is important if
you accidently specify a device that doesn''t exist when trying to add a
new
device to an array, you will panic the box dereferencing bdev.
