Don't call readpage_end_io_hook for the btree inode. Instead of relying on indirect calls to implement metadata buffer validation simply check if the inode whose page we are processing equals the btree inode. If it does call the necessary function. This is an improvement in 2 directions: 1. We aren't paying the penalty of indirect calls in a post-speculation attacks world. 2. The function is now named more explicitly so it's obvious what's going on This is in preparation to removing struct extent_io_ops altogether.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
