Pull btrfs updates from David Sterba:
 "New features:

   - raid-stripe-tree

     New tree for logical file extent mapping where the physical mapping
     may not match on multiple devices. This is now used in zoned mode
     to implement RAID0/RAID1* profiles, but can be used in non-zoned
     mode as well. The support for RAID56 is in development and will
     eventually fix the problems with the current implementation. This
     is a backward incompatible feature and has to be enabled at mkfs
     time.

   - simple quota accounting (squota)

     A simplified mode of qgroup that accounts all space on the initial
     extent owners (a subvolume), the snapshots are then cheap to create
     and delete. The deletion of snapshots in fully accounting qgroups
     is a known CPU/IO performance bottleneck.

     The squota is not suitable for the general use case but works well
     for containers where the original subvolume exists for the whole
     time. This is a backward incompatible feature as it needs extending
     some structures, but can be enabled on an existing filesystem.

   - temporary filesystem fsid (temp_fsid)

     The fsid identifies a filesystem and is hard coded in the
     structures, which disallows mounting the same fsid found on
     different devices.

     For a single device filesystem this is not strictly necessary, a
     new temporary fsid can be generated on mount e.g. after a device is
     cloned. This will be used by Steam Deck for root partition A/B
     testing, or can be used for VM root images.

  Other user visible changes:

   - filesystems with partially finished metadata_uuid conversion cannot
     be mounted anymore and the uuid fixup has to be done by btrfs-progs
     (btrfstune).

  Performance improvements:

   - reduce reservations for checksum deletions (with enabled free space
     tree by factor of 4), on a sample workload on file with many
     extents the deletion time decreased by 12%

   - make extent state merges more efficient during insertions, reduce
     rb-tree iterations (run time of critical functions reduced by 5%)

  Core changes:

   - the integrity check functionality has been removed, this was a
     debugging feature and removal does not affect other integrity
     checks like checksums or tree-checker

   - space reservation changes:

      - more efficient delayed ref reservations, this avoids building up
        too much work or overusing or exhausting the global block
        reserve in some situations

      - move delayed refs reservation to the transaction start time,
        this prevents some ENOSPC corner cases related to exhaustion of
        global reserve

      - improvements in reducing excessive reservations for block group
        items

      - adjust overcommit logic in near full situations, account for one
        more chunk to eventually allocate metadata chunk, this is mostly
        relevant for small filesystems (<10GiB)

   - single device filesystems are scanned but not registered (except
     seed devices), this allows temp_fsid to work

   - qgroup iterations do not need GFP_ATOMIC allocations anymore

   - cleanups, refactoring, reduced data structure size, function
     parameter simplifications, error handling fixes"
