Hi,
btrfs-progs 4.8-rc1 have been tagged. There are almost no user-visible changes
besides the docs updates. Added lots of improved error handling, new fuzzed
images and related fixes and some minor cleanups.
There are some fuzz tests failing, I'll fix them before release but patches are
welcome.

Yes. We have to start somewhere, file renaming is left for later.

Hi,
this pull contains the important fixes to the bitmap handling when the
free-space-tree feature is enabled on bigendian machines. Patches were tested
on various arches, we still might need more testing on sparc64 as there were
some problems unrelated to this patchset. Please pull, thanks.
