In addition , why not create a linked list for the compression in btrfs as we can then do the work using the already build in workqueues for btrfs and improve the scalability of the compression functions and workload it causes as compression is very CPU intensive and we can easily take advance of workquenes in order to allow then to run when idle or rarely when CPU is under heavy load.
Because fsync() exists.
