I'm referring to check_inode_item in fs/btrfs/tree-checker.c
Specificall, the last check it does that fails with the string: "unknown
flags detected".

This patch ignores the new compat_flags from a checking perspective, so
it won't complain no matter what an old on-disk format put there. As far
as I can tell from inspecting the code and mkfs, it should be zero,
though I suppose it's possible an older version of btrfs did not zero
it. I think the worst case would be if it weren't zero and we
incorrectly interpreted the file as having a compat_flags flag set.

I don't understand this suggestion, could you be more specific?

Same for this one, sorry. What do you think I should check?
