Hmm, this patch is new to v5. It doesn't even look encryption related.
I have no idea what Josef really means here.
The whole idea seems to be to call
btrfs_set_free_space_cache_settings() from btrfs_reconfigure() and to
update the ctx->mount_opt instead of fs_info->mount_opt while
remounting.
And btrfs/330 is not failing even with the full patchset applied
without this patch. I'm wondering if it is still needed after those
years?
