Regardless of the packages above, I still think the Btrfs issue is the biggest surprise for people and it is worse because it is the default filesystem now. People can reboot into a new kernel but they may not be able to easily reformat their disks after mkfs at 64k.
What's the situation on filesystems like xfs or ext4?
This issue was mostly resolved for both filesystems years ago. There is a patchset in review in linux-btrfs@ mailing list that resolves this problem. I expect that it'll land in Linux 5.11 or 5.12, though Josef may know more exact details on timelines.
