I'll make a note about it > in the changelog if not. Yes it's always set and I don't see anything in the generic code that would unset it so it's safe to drop the IS_I_VERSION check. The check was originally added in November 2012 by 6c760c072403f4 ("Btrfs: do not call file_update_time in aio_write") and then moved a few times. Enabling the super block flags was added in May 2012 by 0c4d2d95d06e92 ("Btrfs: use i_version instead of our own sequence") so the check was not necessary from the beginning.
