Indeed, that's how I ended up testing them.  I couldn't get the 5.4-rc
kernels to run long enough to do meaningful testing before they locked
up.  I tested with 5.3.8 + patches.

I left out the last patch that removes the raid1c3 incompat flag because
5.3 didn't have the block group tree code to apply it to.

I ran my raid1 and raid56 corruption recovery tests modified for raid1c3.
The first test is roughly:

	mkfs.btrfs -draid1c3 -mraid1c3 /dev/vd[bcdef]
	mount /dev/vdb /test
	cp -a 9GB_data /test
	sync
	sysctl vm.drop_caches=3
	diff -r 9GB_data /test
	head -c 9g /dev/urandom > /dev/vdb
	head -c 9g /dev/urandom > /dev/vdc
	sync
	sysctl vm.drop_caches=3
	diff -r 9GB_data /test
	btrfs scrub start -Bd /test
	sysctl vm.drop_caches=3
	diff -r 9GB_data /test
	btrfs scrub start -Bd /test
	sysctl vm.drop_caches=3
	diff -r 9GB_data /test

First scrub reported a lot of corruption on /dev/vdb and /dev/vdc.  Second
scrub reported no errors.  diff (all instances) reported no differences.

Second test is:

	mkfs.btrfs -draid6 -mraid1c3 /dev/vd[bcdef]
	# rest as above...

Similar results:  first scrub reported many errors as expected.
Second scrub reported no errors.  No diffs.
