I just meant the compression mapping... I'm fine with the update..

Ok, will update as well.

I think it's useful to mark such data isn't a plain data (cannot read
directly, plus m_llen != m_plen). For example, t's useful for fiemap
(actually there is an improvement / a fix for iomap fiemap report code
 to identify/mark the encode flag.)

BTW, I found that this patchset was still buggy, I'd suggest to ignore
this patchset. I need to revise them later.

Thanks,
