Pulled except the last patch, and I've cleaned up some bits so please
have a look. It's basically what I'd tell you during a normal review but
now it was easier to do myself.

My concern about the patch "btrfs-progs: Allow open_ctree use backup
tree root or search it automatically if primary..." is the
'automatically' part. Falling to the backup roots should be IMO on
request. The tools should have (and some of them already do have)
commandline options to request a given backup root. That way the user
can try the default action and then decide if the backup roots are fine
for use.
