Merge branch 'for-linus-4.9' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/mason/linux-btrfs
Pull btrfs fixes from Chris Mason: "Some fixes from Omar and Dave Sterba for our new free space tree. This isn't heavily used yet, but as we move toward making it the new default we wanted to nail down an endian bug" * 'for-linus-4.9' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/mason/linux-btrfs: btrfs: tests: uninline member definitions in free_space_extent btrfs: tests: constify free space extent specs Btrfs: expand free space tree sanity tests to catch endianness bug Btrfs: fix extent buffer bitmap tests on big-endian systems Btrfs: catch invalid free space trees Btrfs: fix mount -o clear_cache,space_cache=v2 Btrfs: fix free space tree bitmaps on big-endian systems
