The METADUMP super flag makes us skip doing the chunk tree reading which isn't

device extent checks in fsck since those will obviously not match.  Thanks,

coverity points out that the "metadump_v2" flag is never set to anything but 0.

is that ... intentional?


Sort of? So I originally skipped these checks with metadump_v2 set, but then I fixed btrfs-image to fix the chunk tree, so I deleted that stuff. However btrfs-image doesn't fix everything so we still want to skip sometimes. Soooooo I'll just delete this bit and add it back when I decide what I want. Thanks,

Josef
