Hi,
I'd like to ask the stable team to add the patch
d55966c4279bfc6a0cf0b32bf13f5df228a1eeb6
btrfs: do not zero f_bavail if we have available space
to 5.4 and 5.5 stable trees as early as possible.
I'm not familiar with your release schedules but I saw the large patch
sets for review and I hope I could squeeze that one in the upcoming
release.
The commit fixes a problem in 'df' that causes false alerts and there
are a lot of users hitting it. The patch itself is a one-liner, but
with a high impact on usability.
Thanks in advance.

I've snuck it in now, and if you could provide a backport for 4.4.y,
that would be great as I think it's also needed there.
thanks,

To help my OCD I snuck it in to 4.4 as well, it just depended on
ae02d1bd0707 ("btrfs: fix mixed block count of available space") which
is a fix on it's own.
