Sorry, I don't understand what you mean. The paused balance and 'device
add' are supposed to be compatible exclusive operations (see commit
a174c0a2e857 ("btrfs: allow device add if balance is paused")).

Have you found some bug with the above or is there other combination of
the exclusive operations that should not work? The changes to the state
values are the same, besides the wrong locking.

This is removing the atomicity of the check so it's racy and could
forcibly overwrite the exclusive operation to BTRFS_EXCLOP_DEV_ADD
without the protecting the whole critical section.

What if there's another exclusive operation started before this lock is
taken?
