Btrfs: fix use-after-free problem of the device during device replace

The problem is:
Task0(device scan task) Task1(device replace task)
scan_one_device()
mutex_lock(&uuid_mutex)
device = find_device()
mutex_lock(&device_list_mutex)
lock_chunk()
rm_and_free_source_device
unlock_chunk()
mutex_unlock(&device_list_mutex)
check device

Destroying the target device if device replace fails also has the same problem.

We fix this problem by locking uuid_mutex during destroying source device or
target device, just like the device remove operation.

It is a temporary solution, we can fix this problem and make the code more
clear by atomic counter in the future.
