Please remove the pointless file names in the comment headers.

Please remove all the byte offset comments.  That is something that can
easily be checked with gdb or pahole.

Please don't add __packed.  In this case I think you don't need it
(but double check with pahole), but even if you would need it using
proper padding fields and making sure all fields are naturally aligned
will give you much better code generation on architectures that don't
support native unaligned access.

This one doesn't actually seem to be used.

why are we adding a legacy field to a brand new file system?

It seems like these come from the on-disk format, in which case they
should have explicit values assigned to them.

Btw, I think it generally helps file system implementation quality
if you use a separate header for the on-disk structures vs in-memory
structures, as that keeps it clear in everyones mind what needs to
stay persistent and what can be chenged easily.

This looks like a really obsfucated way to write:

	return datamode == EROFS_INODE_FLAT_COMPRESSION ||
		datamode == EROFS_INODE_FLAT_COMPRESSION_LEGACY;

Sane comment as above.

Why do we have two inode version in a newly added file system?

This would be much more readable as a function.

Same here.

Seems like an on-disk value again that should use explicitly assigned
numbers.
