Currently btrfs compression path is not really subpage compatible, every thing is still done in page unit. That's fine for regular sector size and subpage routine. As even for subpage routine compression is only enabled if the whole range is page aligned, so reading the page cache in page unit is totally fine. However in preparation for the future subpage perfect compression support, we need to change the compression routine to properly handle a subpage range. This patch would prepare both zlib and zstd to only read the subpage range for compression. Lzo is already doing subpage aware read, as lzo's on-disk format is already sectorsize dependent.

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 reStructuredText 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.
