In the 5.3 merge window, commit 7c7e301406 ("btrfs: sysfs: Replace
default_attrs in ktypes with groups"), we started using the member
"defaults_groups" for the kobject type "btrfs_raid_ktype". That leads
to a series of warnings when running some test cases of fstests, such
as btrfs/027, btrfs/124 and btrfs/176. The traces produced by those
warnings are like the following:

[116648.135923] ---[ end trace 22e24db328ccadf9 ]---
These happen because, during the unmount path, we call kobject_del() for
raid kobjects that are not fully initialized, meaning that we set their
ktype (as btrfs_raid_ktype) through link_block_group() but we didn't set
their parent kobject, which is done through btrfs_add_raid_kobjects().
We have this split raid kobject setup since commit 75cb379d26
("btrfs: defer adding raid type kobject until after chunk relocation") in
order to avoid triggering reclaim during contextes where we can not
(either we are holding a transaction handle or some lock required by
the transaction commit path), so that we do the calls to kobject_add(),
which triggers GFP_KERNEL allocations, through btrfs_add_raid_kobjects()
in contextes where it is safe to trigger reclaim. That change expected
that a new raid kobject can only be created either when mounting the
filesystem or after raid profile conversion through the relocation path.
However, we can have new raid kobject created in other two cases at least:
1) During device replace (or scrub) after adding a device a to the
filesystem. The replace procedure (and scrub) do calls to
btrfs_inc_block_group_ro() which can allocate a new block group
with a new raid profile (because we now have more devices). This
can be triggered by test cases btrfs/027 and btrfs/176.
2) During a degraded mount trough any write path. This can be triggered
by test case btrfs/124.
Fixing this by adding extra calls to btrfs_add_raid_kobjects(), not only
makes things more complex and fragile, can also introduce deadlocks with
reclaim the following way:
1) Calling btrfs_add_raid_kobjects() at btrfs_inc_block_group_ro() or
anywhere in the replace/scrub path will cause a deadlock with reclaim
because if reclaim happens and a transaction commit is triggered,
the transaction commit path will block at btrfs_scrub_pause().
2) During degraded mounts it is essentially impossible to figure out where
to add extra calls to btrfs_add_raid_kobjects(), because allocation of
a block group with a new raid profile can happen anywhere, which means
we can't safely figure out which contextes are safe for reclaim, as
we can either hold a transaction handle or some lock needed by the
transaction commit path.
So it is too complex and error prone to have this split setup of raid
kobjects. So fix the issue by consolidating the setup of the kobjects in a
single place, at link_block_group(), and setup a nofs context there in
order to prevent reclaim being triggered by the memory allocations done
through the call chain of kobject_add().
Besides fixing the sysfs warnings during kobject_del(), this also ensures
the sysfs directories for the new raid profiles end up created and visible
to users (a bug that existed before the 5.3 commit 7c7e301406
("btrfs: sysfs: Replace default_attrs in ktypes with groups")).
