+The argument may be a single value or a range. The single value *N* means *at

Add the overlapping limit and [limit_min, limit_max] members to the balance args. The min/max values are interpreted iff the corresponding flag BTRFS_BALANCE_ARGS_LIMITS is set. Note that the values are only 32bit, but this should be enough for the foreseeable future.
