Hi all,

After merging the btrfs-fixes tree, today's linux-next build
(arm64 defconfig) failed like this:

/tmp/next/build/fs/btrfs/free-space-tree.c: In function 'btrfs_delete_orphan_free_space_entries':
/tmp/next/build/fs/btrfs/free-space-tree.c:1765:9: error: implicit declaration of function 'BTRFS_PATH_AUTO_RELEASE'; did you mean 'BTRFS_PATH_AUTO_FREE'? [-Wimplicit-function-declaration]
1765 | BTRFS_PATH_AUTO_RELEASE(path);

/tmp/next/build/fs/btrfs/free-space-tree.c:1765:33: error: 'path' undeclared (first use in this function)

Caused by commit

7fcf8455f610b (btrfs: reject new transactions if the fs is fully read-only)

I have used the version from 20260119 instead.
