The idea looks pretty good to me.

Although it would be much more convincing to bring some real-world micro
bench to show the benefit.


However I still have a concern related to defrag.
Since it's on-disk flag, thus can be inherited by snapshot, then what
would happen if an auto-defrag inode get snapshotted.

Would any write to the auto-defrag inode in new snapshot break the space
saving?

We can grab fs_info from btrfs_inode, thus no need for the fs_info
parameter.

Thanks,
