Thanks.

I was reviewing this static checker warning. I also have an unpublished warning
which complains about collect_sample().

fs/smb/client/compress.c:207 collect_sample() warn: should we be adding 'len' of the min_t value?

It's a bit weird to sample data from each page. Could we add some comments at
the top of the function explaining what the function does.

/*
* This reads a 2k sample from the start of each page to see the data is already
* compressed or whether we can compress it further.
*/
