My patch
04609add88
introduced a regression where if you mkfs'ed a group of disks with different
sizes it limited the disks to the size of the first one that is specified.
This was not the intent of my patch, I only want it to limit the size based
on the -b option, so I've reworked the code to pass in a max block count and
that fixes the issue. Thanks,

Hi all,
the patch below deprecates the following programs
* btrfsctl
* btrfs-vol
* btrfs-show
the reason is simple, these programs are superseded by the btrfs utility,
both in terms of documentation, usability and bug. The goal is to avoid
to duplicate codes and avoid update two programs.
The patch adds a warning in the man pages, in the INSTALL file and in the
programs.
$ ./btrfsctl
**
** WARNING: this program is considered deprecated
** Please consider to switch to the btrfs utility
**
no valid commands given
usage: btrfsctl [ -d file|dir] [ -s snap_name subvol|tree ]
[-r size] [-A device] [-a] [-c] [-D dir .]
-d filename: defragments one file
-d directory: defragments the entire Btree
-s snap_name dir: creates a new snapshot of dir
-S subvol_name dir: creates a new subvolume
-r [+-]size[gkm]: resize the FS by size amount
-A device: scans the device file for a Btrfs filesystem
-a: scans all devices for Btrfs filesystems
-c: forces a single FS sync
-D: delete snapshot
-m [tree id] directory: set the default mounted subvolume to the [tree
id] or the
directory

So alot of crazy people (I'm looking at you Meego) want to use btrfs on phones
and such with small devices. Unfortunately the way we split out metadata/data
chunks it makes space usage inefficient for volumes that are smaller than
1gigabyte. So add a -M option for mixing metadata+data, and default to this
mixed mode if the filesystem is less than or equal to 1 gigabyte. I've tested
this with xfstests on a 100mb filesystem and everything is a-ok.

Adding a mounted device is dangerous because it will destroy the filesystem
on that mounted device. So we add mounted-checking for btrfs-vol.

Gcc only sends warnings for uninitialized variables when you compile with -O,
and there were a couple of bugs sprinkled in the code. The biggest was the
alloc_start variable for mkfs, which can cause strange things to happen.
(thanks to Gabor Micsko for helping to find this)
