Hello, This series is a report of Josef's original posting [1]. I've included fine-grained changelog in each patch with my changes. Basically, I've forward ported it to 4.12-rc6 and tried incorporating the feedback which was given to every individual patch (I've included link with that information in each individual patch). The main rationale of pushing this is to enable btrfs' subpage-blocksizes patches to eventually be merged. This patchset depends on patches (in listed order) which have already been submitted [2] [3] [4]. But overall they don't hamper review.
