btrfs: heed alloc_start
currently alloc_start is disregarded if the requested chunk size is bigger than (device size - alloc_start), but smaller than the device size. The only situation where I see this could have made sense was when a chunk equal the size of the device has been requested. This was possible as the allocator failed to take alloc_start into account when calculating the request chunk size. As this gets fixed by this patch, the workaround is not necessary anymore.
