Subject: [PATCH 08/19] btrfs: make unmirroed BGs readonly only if we have at least one writable BG

If the btrfs volume has mirrored block groups, it unconditionally makes
un-mirrored block groups read only. When we have mirrored block groups, but
don't have writable block groups, this will drop all writable block groups.
So, check if we have at least one writable mirrored block group before
setting un-mirrored block groups read only.

I don't understand why you want this. Thanks,

This is necessary to handle e.g. btrfs/124 case.

When we mount degraded RAID1 FS and write to it, and then
re-mount with full device, the write pointers of corresponding
zones of written BG differ. The patch 07 mark such block group
as "wp_broken" and make it read only. In this situation, we only
have read only RAID1 BGs because of "wp_broken" and un-mirrored BGs
are also marked read only, because we have RAID1 BGs.
As a result, all the BGs are now read only, so that we
cannot even start the rebalance to fix the situation.

Ah ok, please add this explanation to the changelog. Thanks,
