btrfs-progs: mkfs should first check all disks before writing to a disk
In the cases where one of the disk is not suitable for btrfs, then we would fail the mkfs, however we determine that after we have written btrfs to the preceding disks. At this time if user changes mind for not to use btrfs will left with no choice. So this patch will check if all the provided disks are suitable for the btrfs at once before proceeding to create btrfs on a disk. Further this patch also removed duplicate code to check device suitability for the btrfs. Next, there is an existing bug about the -r mkfs option, which this patch would carry forward most of it.
