Documentation: ext4: Add fields to ext4_super_block documentation
Documentation and implementation of the ext4 super block have slightly diverged: Padding has been removed in order to make room for new fields that are still missing in the documentation. Add the new fields s_encryption_level, s_first_error_errorcode, s_last_error_errorcode to the documentation of the ext4 super block. Fixes: f542fbe8d5e8 ("ext4 crypto: reserve codepoints used by the ext4 encryption feature") Fixes: 878520ac45f9 ("ext4: save the error code which triggered an ext4_error() in the superblock") Signed-off-by: Tom Vierjahn <tom.vierjahn@acm.org> Reviewed-by: Ojaswin Mujoo <ojaswin@linux.ibm.com> Link: https://patch.msgid.link/20250324221004.5268-1-tom.vierjahn@acm.org Signed-off-by: Theodore Ts'o <tytso@mit.edu>
