This runs into trouble with btrfs_rm_device(), I've been triggering 
crashes with btrfs/101 here.

The problem is that by the time we get around to running 
btrfs_delete_unused_bgs(), btrfs_rm_device() has long since free'd the 
device.

I thought about calling btrfs_delete_unused_bgs() directly from 
btrfs_rm_device(), but it might bail out without returning an error for 
a number of reasons.

For now, I've reverted this patch from the pull, but we can bring it 
back once the device removal path is covered.
