pls use 'btrfs bal profile and convert' to migrate single chunk (if any
created when there were lesser number of RW-able devices) back to your
desired raid1. Do this when all the devices are back online. Kindly note
there is a bug in the btrfs VM that you won't be able to bring a device
online with out unmount -> mount (I am working to fix). btrfs-progs will
be wrong in this case don't depend too much on that.
So to understand inside of btrfs kernel volume I generally use:
https://patchwork.kernel.org/patch/5816011/
In there if bdev is null it indicates device is scanned but not part of
VM yet. Then unmount -> mount will bring device back to be part of VM.
