BUG: root on BTRFS multi-volume

[Gene Czarcinski]

grub2 has a problem handling the case where root ("/") resides on a 
BTRFS multi-volume storage.

The patch below corrects the problem.  This has been tested on both real 
and virtual hardware on Fedora 18, Fedora 19, and Fedora 20-Beta.

I submitted this last January but it appears to have fallen through the 
creacks.

Subject: [PATCH] support for multi-device btrfs volume

The current code produces error messages if passed a device
list with multiple devices for a btrfs volume.  It worked OK
for single device btrfs volume.

This has been regression tested with root/boot on a regular
partition, single device VG logical volume, and single
device btrfs volume.

The name was change from device to devices to indicate that it
could be a device list plus the comments were added.
