It needs to also be split up because fs/ and fs/bcachefs are
maintained differently. And while right now bcachefs is the only
consumer of the API, btrfs will add it right after it's committed, and
for people who are cherry-picking/backporting accordingly, having to
chop out part of a patch would be unpleasant.
