In the quest to remove all stack VLA usage from the kernel[1], this
allocates the working buffers during regular init, instead of using stack
space. This refactors the allocation code a bit to make it easier
to review.

For the record, so this was the last use of VLA in fs/btrfs/ .

Correct. And fs/ntfs/ has the last remaining VLAs in fs/.
