[PATCH 1/2] staging: erofs: add requirements field in superblock

From: Gao Xiang
Date: Mon Jun 10 2019 - 05:41:52 EST


There are some backward incompatible optimizations pending
for months, mainly due to on-disk format expensions.

However, we should ensure that it cannot be mounted with
old kernels. Otherwise, it will causes unexpected behaviors.
