[BUG] When running btrfs/011 inside VM which has unsafe cache set for its devices, and the host have enough memory to cache all the IO: btrfs/011 98s ...

Ran: btrfs/011 Failures: btrfs/011 Failed 1 of 1 tests [CAUSE] Although commit fa85aa64 ("btrfs/011: Fill the fs to ensure we have enough data for dev-replace") tries to address the problem by filling the fs with extra content, there is still no guarantee that 2 seconds of IO still needs 2 seconds to finish. Thus even we tried our best to make sure the replace will take 2 seconds, it can still finish faster than 2 seconds. And just to mention how fast the test finishes, after the fix, the test takes around 90~100 seconds to finish. While on real-hardware it can take over 1000 seconds. [FIX] Instead of further enlarging the IO, here we just accept the fact that replace can finish faster than our expectation, and continue the test. One thing to notice is, since the replace finished, we need to replace back the device, or later fsck will be executed on blank device, and cause false alert.
