This splits out btree topology repair into a separate pass, and makes some improvements: - When we have to pick which of two overlapping nodes to drop keys from, we use the btree node header sequence number to preserve the newer node - the gc code has been changed so that it doesn't bail out if we're continuing/ignoring on fsck error - this way the dump tool can skip running the repair pass but still walk all reachable metadata - add a new superblock flag indicating when a filesystem is known to have btree topology issues, and the topology repair pass should be run - changing the start/end of a node might mean keys in that node have to be deleted: this patch handles that better by splitting it out into a separate function and running it explicitly in the topology repair code, previously those keys were only being dropped when the btree node was read in.

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.
