From: Josef Bacik <josef@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx> [ Upstream commit a8892fd71933126ebae3d60aec5918d4dceaae76 ] Our btrfs subvolume snapshot <source> <destination> utility enforces that <source> is the root of the subvolume, however this isn't enforced in the kernel. Update the kernel to also enforce this limitation to avoid problems with other users of this ioctl that don't have the appropriate checks in place.
