Subject: [PATCH 0/3] Allow fscache to work on BTRFS

The following three patches allow fs to "cachefiles" in a BTRFS
filesystem.

The first is a minor cleanup to cachefiles.
The second is the main change - it teaches cachefile to use
lseek(SEEK_DATA) to find allocated blocks in a file, rather than bmap.
The third patch simply enables this for btrfs.

Thanks,
NeilBrown

NeilBrown (3):
      cachefiles: perform test on s_blocksize when opening cache file.
      fscache/cachefiles: optionally use SEEK_DATA instead of ->bmap.
      btrfs: set FS_SUPPORTS_SEEK_HOLE flag.
