Subject: btrfs on MIPS with 16K page size

Hello,

I am having some trouble with btrfs on the MIPS (Little Endian) architecture.

Linux hoshi 2.6.39-libre-lemote-rm1 #1 Sun May 29 17:48:16 YEKST 2011 mips64 GNU/Linux

btrfs-tools                0.19+20101101-1

First of all, the kernel I use has a 16K page size; the only other option here is 64K, but that
one is experimental (and 4K pages can't be used). So my mkfs.btrfs looked like this: 
----------------------------------------
# mkfs.btrfs /dev/sdb2 

WARNING! - Btrfs Btrfs v0.19 IS EXPERIMENTAL
WARNING! - see http://btrfs.wiki.kernel.org before using

fs created label (null) on /dev/sdb2
	nodesize 16384 leafsize 16384 sectorsize 16384 size 55.79GB
Btrfs Btrfs v0.19
----------------------------------------
Then when mounting this newly-created FS I am getting this output in dmesg (but the FS seems to
mount fine after that):

My questions are,
- What's up with the warning in dmesg?
- Can this filesystem (nodesize 16384 leafsize 16384 sectorsize 16384) be mounted on an
  x86 system with page size of 4K at all, if I move the disk there (didn't try that yet)?
- If not, isn't that suboptimal to have mkfs in some circumstances create a
  non-cross-architecture FS by default?
- Can I force it make one by specifying -l 4096 -n 4096 -s 4096,
- ...and then will I have no problems using such FS both on 16K and 4K-paged machines?
