I agree it makes sense to allow for turning off the compression via
remount. Currently the mount flag FORCE_COMPRESS implies COMPRESS and
your code may lead to FORCE_COMPRESS without COMPRESS. To fix that
clear the force option as well.

For completeness, there should be also possibility of

  -o remount,compress-force=no

doing exactly the same, just a different syntax. Proposed fix below.

				btrfs_clear_opt(info->mount_opt, FORCE_COMPRESS);
				compress_force = false;
