Since commit 88c14590cdd6 ("btrfs: use RCU in btrfs_show_devname for
device list traversal") btrfs_show_devname no longer takes
device_list_mutex. As such the deadlock that 0ccd05285e7f ("btrfs: fix
a possible umount deadlock") aimed to fix no longer exists. So remove the 
extra code this commit added. No functional changes. 

This reverts commit 0ccd05285e7f5a8e297e1d6dfc41e7c65757d6fa.

Anand, 

I would like to use the opportunity to ask you about the peculiar 
sequence needed to close btrfs devices. Why do we first replace the closed 
device with a copy in btrfs_close_one_device, then dispose of the copied
devices in btrfs_close_devices IFF we had fs_devices->seed not being NULL?
