Add new value for compression to distinguish between defrag and
property. Previously, a single variable was used and this caused clashes
when the per-file 'compression' was set and a defrag -c was called.

The property-compression is loaded when the file is open, defrag will
overwrite the same variable and reset to 0 (ie. NONE) at when the file
defragmentaion is finished. That's considered a usability bug.

Now we won't touch the property value, use the defrag-compression. The
precedence of defrag is higher than for property (and whole-filesystem).

============

This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst

Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users.
These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.

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.
