Really? I found it shocking that you just missed the btrfs_can_overcommit() checks just lines below. And stop throwing LLM word salad without going through your human brain. I don't want to waste time arguing with an agent which can only stick to its flawed plan. If you are not the person defending the design, but an agent, I find no value reviewing anything from you and your agent.
