[LTP] [PATCH 4/4] libswap: add Btrfs noCOW attribute setting for swap files

Mon Jan 22 08:29:48 CET 2024
The patch aims to ensure swap files on Btrfs filesystems are created
with the appropriate FS_NOCOW_FL attribute, which is necessary to
disable CoW (Copy-on-Write) for swap files, perthe btrfs(5) manual page.
This change is gated behind a kernel version check to ensure compatibility
with the system's capabilities.
