btrfs: Use default subvolume as filesystem root

BTRFS volume consists of a number of subvolumes which can be mounted separately
from each other. The top-level subvolume always exists even if no subvolumes
were created manually. A subvolume can be denoted as the default subvolume i.e.
the subvolume which is mounted by default.

The default "default subvolume" is the top-level one, but this is far from the
common practices used in the wild. For instance, openSUSE provides an OS
snapshot/rollback feature based on BTRFS. To achieve this, the actual OS root
filesystem is located into a separate subvolume which is "default" but not
"top-level". That means that the /boot/dtb/ directory is also located inside
this default subvolume instead of top-level one.

However, the existing btrfs u-boot driver always uses the top-level subvolume
as the filesystem root. This behaviour 1) is inconsistent with

    mount /dev/sda1 /target

command, which mount the default subvolume 2) leads to the issues when
/boot/dtb cannot be found properly (see the reference).

This patch uses the default subvolume as the filesystem root to overcome
mentioned issues.
