David Woodhouse 53b381b3ab Btrfs: RAID5 and RAID6
This builds on David Woodhouse's original Btrfs raid5/6 implementation.
The code has changed quite a bit, blame Chris Mason for any bugs.

Read/modify/write is done after the higher levels of the filesystem have
prepared a given bio.  This means the higher layers are not responsible
for building full stripes, and they don't need to query for the topology
of the extents that may get allocated during delayed allocation runs.
It also means different files can easily share the same stripe.

But, it does expose us to incorrect parity if we crash or lose power
while doing a read/modify/write cycle.  This will be addressed in a
later commit.

Scrub is unable to repair crc errors on raid5/6 chunks.

Discard does not work on raid5/6 (yet)

The stripe size is fixed at 64KiB per disk.  This will be tunable
in a later commit.

Btrfs is a new filesystem with extents, writable snapshotting,
support for multiple devices and many more features.
Btrfs is highly experimental, and THE DISK FORMAT IS NOT YET
FINALIZED. You should say N here unless you are interested in
testing Btrfs with non-critical data.
To compile this file system support as a module, choose M here. The
module will be called btrfs.
If unsure, say N.

POSIX Access Control Lists (ACLs) support permissions for users and
groups beyond the owner/group/world scheme.
To learn more about Access Control Lists, visit the POSIX ACLs for
Linux website <http://acl.bestbits.at/>.
If you don't know what Access Control Lists are, say N
config BTRFS_FS_CHECK_INTEGRITY
bool "Btrfs with integrity check tool compiled in (DANGEROUS)"
depends on BTRFS_FS
help
Adds code that examines all block write requests (including
writes of the super block). The goal is to verify that the
state of the filesystem on disk is always consistent, i.e.,
after a power-loss or kernel panic event the filesystem is
in a consistent state.
If the integrity check tool is included and activated in
the mount options, plenty of kernel memory is used, and
plenty of additional CPU cycles are spent. Enabling this
functionality is not intended for normal use.
In most cases, unless you are a btrfs developer who needs
to verify the integrity of (super)-block write requests
during the run of a regression test, say N
