[PATCH 2/4] btrfs: put initial index value of a directory in a constant

From: fdmanana@kernel.org
Date: 2021-12-15 12:20:11
Subsystem: btrfs file system, filesystems (vfs and infrastructure), the rest · Maintainers: Chris Mason, David Sterba, Alexander Viro, Christian Brauner, Linus Torvalds

From: Filipe Manana <redacted>

At btrfs_set_inode_index_count() we refer twice to the number 2 as the
initial index value for a directory (when it's empty), with a proper
comment explaining the reason for that value. In the next patch I'll
have to use that magic value in the directory logging code, so put
the value in a #define at btrfs_inode.h, to avoid hardcoding the
magic value again at tree-log.c.
