Long Li a2110964d5 xfs: remove unknown compat feature check in superblock write validation 
[ Upstream commit 652f03db89 ]

Compat features are new features that older kernels can safely ignore,
allowing read-write mounts without issues. The current sb write validation
implementation returns -EFSCORRUPTED for unknown compat features,
preventing filesystem write operations and contradicting the feature's
definition.

Additionally, if the mounted image is unclean, the log recovery may need
to write to the superblock. Returning an error for unknown compat features
during sb write validation can cause mount failures.

Although XFS currently does not use compat feature flags, this issue
affects current kernels' ability to mount images that may use compat
feature flags in the future.

Since superblock read validation already warns about unknown compat
features, it's unnecessary to repeat this warning during write validation.
Therefore, the relevant code in write validation is being removed.

Fixes: 9e037cb797 ("xfs: check for unknown v5 feature bits in superblock write verifier")

README 

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
