btrfs: accept and ignore compression level for lzo
The compression level is meaningless for lzo, but before commit 3f093ccb95f30 ("btrfs: harden parsing of compression mount options"), it was silently ignored if passed. After that commit, passing a level with lzo fails to mount: BTRFS error: unrecognized compression value lzo:1 It seems reasonable for users to expect that lzo would permit a numeric level option, as all the other algos do, even though the kernel's implementation of LZO currently only supports a single level. Because it has always worked to pass a level, it seems likely to me that users in the real world are relying on doing so. This patch restores the old behavior, giving "lzo:N" the same semantics as all of the other compression algos. To be clear, silly variants like "lzo:one", "lzo:the_first_option", or "lzo:armageddon" also used to work. This isn't meant to suggest that any possible mis-interpretation of mount options that once worked must continue to work forever. This is an exceptional case where it makes sense to preserve compatibility, both because the mis-interpretation is reasonable, and because nothing tangible is sacrificed. Finally update btrfs_show_options() to ignore the level of LZO, as it is only the default level without any extra meaning.
