This looks like rcu-unprotected access, though there's an outer mutext
held in device_list_add that calls btrfs_free_stale_device. I'm not sure
that the device name should be used to do any sorts of checks at all.

Devices are normally freed by the rcu through free_device, this looks
suspicious to mix both approaches.

Unnecessary return

It might be safe to do that in the end, but it should be explained
somewhere.
