Again, while playing mkfs with small volumes, I found that mkfs.btrfs
aborts if there is really no spaces for a brand-new filesystem:
# ./mkfs.btrfs -f /dev/sdf1 /dev/sdf2
:
SMALL VOLUME: forcing mixed metadata/data groups
adding device /dev/sdf2 id 2
mkfs.btrfs: mkfs.c:184: create_one_raid_group: Assertion `!(ret)' failed.
Aborted (core dumped)
This fix let mkfs prints error message if it cannot make filesystem due
to a lack of free spaces.
