I clarified the second paragraph to:

Supporting this changed format requires retooling how we store the
commands we have processed. We currently store pointers to the struct
btrfs_tlv_headers in the command buffer. This is not sufficient to
represent the new BTRFS_SEND_A_DATA format. Instead, parse the attribute
headers and store them in a new struct btrfs_send_attribute which has a
32-bit length field. This is transparent to users of the various TLV_GET
macros.
