Btrfs: don't allow device replace on RAID5/RAID6

Browse Source 
This is not yet supported and causes crashes. One sad user reported
that it destroyed his filesystem.

One failure is in __btrfs_map_block+0xc1f calling kmalloc(0).

0x5f21f is in __btrfs_map_block (fs/btrfs/volumes.c:4923).
4918                            num_stripes = map->num_stripes;
4919                            max_errors = nr_parity_stripes(map);
4920
4921                            raid_map = kmalloc(sizeof(u64) * num_stripes,
4922                                               GFP_NOFS);
4923                            if (!raid_map) {
4924                                    ret = -ENOMEM;
4925                                    goto out;
4926                            }
4927

There might be more issues. Until this is really tested, don't allow
users to start the procedure on RAID5/RAID6 filesystems.
