Currently all filesystems which implement super_operations::shutdown()
can not afford losing a device.
Thus fs_bdev_mark_dead() will just call the ->shutdown() callback for the
involved filesystem.
But it will no longer be the case, as multi-device filesystems like
btrfs and bcachefs can handle certain device loss without the need to
shutdown the whole filesystem.
To allow those multi-device filesystems to be integrated to use
fs_holder_ops:
- Add a new super_operations::remove_bdev() callback
- Try ->remove_bdev() callback first inside fs_bdev_mark_dead()
If the callback returned 0, meaning the fs can handling the device
loss, then exit without doing anything else.
If there is no such callback or the callback returned non-zero value,
continue to shutdown the filesystem as usual.
This means the new remove_bdev() should only do the check on whether the
operation can continue, and if so do the fs specific handlings.
The shutdown handling should still be handled by the existing
->shutdown() callback.
For all existing filesystems with shutdown callback, there is no change
to the code nor behavior.
Btrfs is going to implement both the ->remove_bdev() and ->shutdown()
callbacks soon.
