This should use libblkid to do the scanning of the devices, and it can cache the results for efficiency. Best would be to have the same LABEL+UUID for all devices in the same filesystem, and then once any of these devices are found the mount.btrfs code can query the rest of the devices to find the remaining parts of the filesystem.
