    Linus Torvalds authored
    Pull btrfs updates from David Sterba:
     "There are some new user features and the usual load of invisible
      enhancements or cleanups.
    
      New features:
    
       - extend mount options to specify zlib compression level, -o
         compress=zlib:9
    
       - v2 of ioctl "extent to inode mapping", addressing a usecase where
         we want to retrieve more but inaccurate results and do the
         postprocessing in userspace, aiding defragmentation or
         deduplication tools
    
       - populate compression heuristics logic, do data sampling and try to
         guess compressibility by: looking for repeated patterns, counting
         unique byte values and distribution, calculating Shannon entropy;
         this will need more benchmarking and possibly fine tuning, but the
         base should be good enough
    
       - enable indexing for btrfs as lower filesystem in overlayfs
    
       - speedup page cache readahead during send on large files
    
      Internal enhancements:
    
       - more sanity checks of b-tree items when reading them from disk
    
       - more EINVAL/EUCLEAN fixups, missing BLK_STS_* conversion, other
         errno or error handling fixes
    
       - remove some homegrown IO-related logic, that's been obsoleted by
         core block layer changes (batching, plug/unplug, own counters)
    
       - add ref-verify, optional debugging feature to verify extent
         reference accounting
    
       - simplify code handling outstanding extents, make it more clear
         where and how the accounting is done
    
       - make delalloc reservations per-inode, simplify the code and make
         the logic more straightforward
    
       - extensive cleanup of delayed refs code
    
      Notable fixes:
    
       - fix send ioctl on 32bit with 64bit kernel"
