The behaviour of a 'chattr -c' consists of getting the current flags,
clearing the FS_COMPR_FL bit and then sending the result to the set
flags ioctl - this means the bit FS_NOCOMP_FL isn't set in the flags
passed to the ioctl. This results in the compression property not being
cleared from the inode - it was cleared only if the bit FS_NOCOMP_FL
was set in the received flags.
Reproducer:
$ mkfs.btrfs -f /dev/sdd
$ mount /dev/sdd /mnt && cd /mnt
$ mkdir a
$ chattr +c a
$ touch a/file
$ lsattr a/file
--------c------- a/file
$ chattr -c a
$ touch a/file2
$ lsattr a/file2
--------c------- a/file2
$ lsattr -d a
---------------- a
