As described by commit log, this is the initial effort for btrfs.
Format was declared stable in 0.18 and code initially merged into linus'
tree, so it should be safe to start deploying it.
I hooked this patch together as I was working on gparted, and both seem
to work[1]. 
Still much room for improvements and many sharp edges, but I won't
have time to work on it in the next future, so I'd liked to send it
as-is.

Ciao, Luca
