When using send/receive, it it useful to be able to match up source
subvols on the send side (as, say, for -p or -c clone sources) with their
corresponding copies on the receive side. This patch adds a -R option to
btrfs sub list to show the received subvolume UUID on the receive side,
allowing the user to perform that matching correctly.

AUTHORS lists authors of the documentation or program.Use of
an AUTHORS section is strongly discouraged. Generally,
it is better not to clutter every page with a list of
(over time potentially numerous) authors; if you write
or significantly amend a page, add a copyright notice
as a comment in the source file. If you are the author
of a device driver and want to include an address for
reporting bugs, place this under the BUGS section.

'btrfs filesystem defrag' has an option '-t', whose manpage says
"Any extent bigger than threshold given by -t option, will be
considered already defragged. Use 0 to take the kernel default, and
use 1 to say every single extent must be rewritten."
Here 'use 0' still works, it refers to the default value(256K), however,
'use 1' is an obvious typo, it should be -1, which means the largest value
it can be.
Right now, we use parse_size() which no more allow value '-1', so in
order to keep the manpage correct, this updates it to only keep value '0'.
If you want to make sure every single extent is rewritten, please use a fairly
large size, say 1G.

The -f option of scrub means to
"force starting new scrub even if a scrub is already running"
*not*
"force to check whether scrub has started or resumed in userspace"
as described originally.
So replace the orignal description in the manpage and code.
Also, add description of the potential failure as follows
"If a scrub is already running, it fails."

had: many options listed, not kept up to date for various

This is a straight cut and paste from the util-linux
mount manpage into btrfs-mount.5
It's pretty much impossible for util-linux to keep up
with every filesystem out there, and Karel has more than
once expressed a wish that mount options move into fs-specific
manpages.
So, here we go.
The way btrfs asciidoc is generated, there's not a trivial
way to have both btrfs(5) and btrfs(8) so I named it btrfs-mount(5)
for now. A bit ick and I'm open to suggestions.

I found this to be less aesthetically pleasing than it was before:

Making all in Documentation
ASCIIDOC btrfs-convert.xml
[LD] btrfstune
XMLTO btrfs-convert.8
[CC] btrfs-show-super.o
GZIP btrfs-convert.8.gz
[LD] btrfs-show-super
ASCIIDOC btrfs-debug-tree.xml
XMLTO btrfs-debug-tree.8
so I shortened the pretty-text to match what we had before.
Also, make clean "quiet" like it is in the top dir.

Due to either bugs in send (kernel) that generate a command against
a wrong path for example, or transient errors on the receiving side,
we stopped processing the send stream immediately and exited with
an error.
It's often desirable to continue processing the send stream even if an
error happens while processing a single command from the send stream.
This change just adds a --max-errors <N> parameter, whose default value
is 1 (preserving current behaviour), that allows to tolerate N errors
before stopping. A value of 0 means to never stop no matter how many
errors we get into while processing the send stream. Regardless of its
value, errors are always printed to stderr when they happen, just like
before this change.

Non-unique unique IDs are rejected. This includes attempting
to re-mkfs with the same UUID; if you really want to do that,

Fedora had a bug where a poor user thought that --alloc-start
meant that the filesystem would be created at that offset into
the device, rather than just starting allocations at that offset.
A subtle difference, but worth clarifying, because the manpage
is misleading on this point.
The original commit log for this option says:
Add mkfs.btrfs -A offset to control allocation start on devices
This is a utility option for the resizer, it makes sure to allocate
at offset bytes in the disk or higher. It ensures the resizer will have
something to move when testing it.
so allude to that intended use in the manpage.

If we point btrfs-show-super at a not-btrfs-device and
try to print all superblocks, bad things are apt to happen:
superblock: bytenr=274877906944, device=/dev/sdc2

btrfs-show-super: ctree.h:1984: btrfs_super_csum_size: \
Assertion `!(t >= (sizeof(btrfs_csum_sizes) / sizeof((btrfs_csum_sizes)[0])))' failed.
csum 0xAborted
Don't try to print superblocks that don't look like superblocks,
and add an "-f" (force) option to try anyway, if the user
really wants to give it a shot.
Fix some spelling & capitalization while we're at it.
The manpage says that if any problem happens, 1 will
be returned, but that's already not true today LOL, so
I didn't bother to make it true when we detect bad
sb magic, either...
I figure it's worth continuing and trying all superblocks
in case just one has a corrupt magic.
