Qu Wenruo 1c56ab9919 btrfs: separate BLOCK_GROUP_TREE compat RO flag from EXTENT_TREE_V2
The problem of long mount time caused by block group item search is
already known for some time, and the solution of block group tree has
been proposed.

There is really no need to bound this feature into extent tree v2, just
introduce compat RO flag, BLOCK_GROUP_TREE, to correctly solve the
problem.

All the code handling block group root is already in the upstream
kernel, thus this patch really only needs to introduce the new compat RO
flag.

This patch introduces one extra artificial limitation on block group
tree feature, that free space cache v2 and no-holes feature must be
enabled to use this new compat RO feature.

This artificial requirement is mostly to reduce the test combinations,
and can be a guideline for future features, to mostly rely on the latest
default features.

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
