Non-block group destruction discarding currently only had a single list with no minimum discard length. This can lead to caravaning more meaningful discards behind a heavily fragmented block group. This adds support for multiple lists with minimum discard lengths to prevent the caravan effect. We promote block groups back up when we exceed the BTRFS_ASYNC_DISCARD_MAX_FILTER size, currently we support only 2 lists with filters of 1MB and 32KB respectively.

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.
