Btrfs should compile without warnings, in general any warning is a bug.
The incompatible pointer argument warnings are almost always bugs.  In
this case, the ubuntu kernel has a patch that changes the arguments of
the remove_suid call, and btrfs needs to call it differently.

But, recent versions of Btrfs should be doing the right thing.  Which
version are you running?
