Hi all,
[I am not sure why this error only popped up after I merged Andrew's
patch set ...]
After merging the btrfs tree, today's linux-next build (x86_64
allmodconfig) failed like this:

This changes the "reserved" field of struct btrfs_ioctl_send_args from 4 u6=
4's to 3, but the above memcpy is copying the "reserved" filed from a struc=
t btrfs_ioctl_send_args_32 (4 u64s) into it.
All I could really do at this point was mark BTRFS_FS as BROKEN
(TEST_KMOD selects BTRFS_FS):
