Btrfs devel - Apr 2014 - [PATCH 001/001] btrfs: Mechanism to modify the permission of a subvolume

From: Ajesh JS <ajesh.js@hp.com>

This patch provides a mechanism to modify the permission of a subvolume in a
btrfs file system
This helps to apply a policy of having read-write subvolume inside a read-only
subvolume.
One use case is to have the whole root file system as a read-only subvolume and
have /etc as a read-write subvolume inside.
