Subject: [GIT PULL] Btrfs fixes fro 6.19-rc8

Hi,

please pull two fixes for bugs with serious consequences. Thanks.

- fix leaked folio refcount on s390x when using hw zlib compression
  acceleration

- remove own threshold from ->writepages() which could collide with
  cgroup limits and lead to a deadlock when metadadata are not written
  because the amount is under the internal limit
