It looks to me like the logic in these two if statements are
overlapping.

The test for flags & BTRFS_BLOCK_GROUP_SYSTEM in the 2nd case
should never get triggered, because it would have triggered
on the first case, right?

And since the actions are identical in both cases, this can be
collapsed into one.

p.s.

Having done that, I now look at the nearly identical
custom_alloc_extent() copy in convert.c, and wonder if it's
intentional that the convert copy does not care about 
BTRFS_BLOCK_GROUP_METADATA, but mkfs does?  I'm not quite
sure what's going on there.

Thanks,
-Eric

When I was digging in the conversion code, I saw that
btrfs_make_block_groups() uses some heuristics to define some block
groups as DATA and some as METADATA. But later, the conversion code,
as you noticed, doesn't care about this, and there are data
EXTENT_ITEMs that land in METADATA block groups. I am not sure if this
is a problem or not, I asked here:
http://www.spinics.net/lists/linux-btrfs/msg19894.html, but got no
answers:(
Since then I tried to develop my own version of convert that lays out
block groups more properly, but it makes some assumptions on the free
space on the block device being converted.

Alex.
