Linux kernel source tree

It's quite hard and unreadable the way the rule checks are organized in
should_cow_block(). We have a single if statement that returns 0 (false)
and it checks several conditions, with one them being a negated compound
condition which is particularly hard to reason immediately.
Improve on this by using multiple if statements, each checking a single
condition and returning immediately. Also change the return type from an
integer to a boolean, since all we need is to return true or false.
At least on x86_64 with Debian's gcc 14.2.0-19, this also reduces the
object code size by 64 bytes.
Before this change:
$ size fs/btrfs/btrfs.ko
text data bss dec hex filename
1913327 161567 15592 2090486 1fe5f6 fs/btrfs/btrfs.ko
After this change:
$ size fs/btrfs/btrfs.ko
text data bss dec hex filename
1913263 161567 15592 2090422 1fe5b6 fs/btrfs/btrfs.ko

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
