I don't think this is better. Because one has to actually read the comment about disk_bytenr to understand whether the following members include exclude checksums. I prefer to explicitly state whether each member includes/excludes the checksums. As it stands, a sensible correction is to simply state (checksums excluded). > */ > __le64 num_bytes; > >

All btrfs_file_extent_item members don't take checksum size into consideration. This bad comment looks like from early days where inlined data checksum (checksum is stored along with data) is being considered. But the reality is, we never support inlined data checksum since btrfs is mainlined. Remove this dead comment, add a new comment explaining how data checksum is stored, and remove the unnecessary data csum reference.
