The wiki page https://btrfs.wiki.kernel.org/index.php/Mount_options has
outdated information regarding the "metadata-ratio" option.

It says:

 metadata_ratio=number
   Sets the number of data chunks that need to be allocated to force a
   metadata chunk allocation. By default this is set to 8 (meaning that
   data:metadata are 1:8). 

Both the 'mount' man page and a look at the code (disk-io.c:open_ctree())
confirm that this is incorrect, and that forced metadata chunk allocation
will be skipped by default.

Could someone with an account please update this?

Thanks,
Holger
