Upstream commit 9f73f1aef98b ("btrfs: force v2 space cache usage for subpage mount") forces subpage mount to use v2 cache, to avoid deprecated v1 cache which doesn't support subpage properly. But there is a loophole that user can still remount to v1 cache. The existing check will only give users a warning, but does not really prevent to do the remount. Although remounting to v1 will not cause any problems since the v1 cache will always be marked invalid when mounted with a different page size, it's still better to prevent v1 cache at all for subpage mounts.
