commit 1a63c198ddb810c790101d693c7071cca703b3c7 upstream.
Incompat flag of LZO/ZSTD compression should be set at:
1. mount time (-o compress/compress-force)
2. when defrag is done
3. when property is set
Currently 3. is missing and this commit adds this.
This could lead to a filesystem that uses ZSTD but is not marked as
such. If a kernel without a ZSTD support encounteres a ZSTD compressed
extent, it will handle that but this could be confusing to the user.
Typically the filesystem is mounted with the ZSTD option, but the
discrepancy can arise when a filesystem is never mounted with ZSTD and
then the property on some file is set (and some new extents are
written). A simple mount with -o compress=zstd will fix that up on an
unpatched kernel.
Same goes for LZO, but this has been around for a very long time
(2.6.37) so it's unlikely that a pre-LZO kernel would be used.

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. 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.
