btrfs-progs: Doc: Add warning and note on btrfs-convert.
Although btrfs-convert can rollback converted btrfs, it still has some limitation to ensure rollback. Add a warning on the limitations. Also add a note for users who decides to go on with btrfs and don't need the rollback ability.

|

and the original filesystem image is accessible as from separate subvolume
|
||||
named 'ext2_saved' as file image.
|
||||
|
||||
WARNING: If one hopes to rollback to ext2/3/4, they should not execute
|
||||
*btrfs balance* command on converted btrfs, since it will change the extent
|
||||
layout and make *btrfs-convert* unable to rollback.
|
||||
|
||||
NOTE: If one is satisfied with converted btrfs, and not longer wants to
|
||||
rollback to ext2/3/4, it is highly recommended to remove 'ext2_saved' subvolume
|
||||
and execute *btrfs filesystem defragment* and *btrfs balance* command on the
|
||||
converted btrfs.
