Hi,

just a few comments.

If I understand correctly, what you try to do is to silence a compiler 
warning if no case branch is taken.

First, all your proposals are based on the previous one.
I find it hard to follow because we don't easily see what are the 
differences since the beginning.

The "base-commit" at the bottom of your mail, is related to your own 
local tree, I guess. It can't be used by any-one.

My understanding it that a patch, should it be v2, v3..., must apply to 
the current tree. (In my case, it is the latest linux-next)
This is not the case here and you have to apply each step to see the 
final result.

Should this version be fine, a maintainer wouldn't be able to apply it 
as-is.

You also try to take into account previous comments to check for 
incorrect negative values for minor and catch (the can't happen today) 
cases, should BTRFS_SUPER_MIRROR_MAX change and this function remain the 
same.

So, why hard-coding '3'?
The reason of magic numbers are hard to remember. You should avoid them 
or add a comment about it.

My own personal variation would be something like the code below (untested).

Hope this helps.
