Hello. There seem to be lots of questions in various forums re the
output of btrfs fi df -- especially w.r.t. the usage of the word
"total". For example see https://community.oracle.com/thread/2459838

I feel it would make the intent clearer if "total" were changed to
"alloc" or "allocated" (if the short form is felt unclear). It would
also help people understand the output of regular df on a btrfs system
since one can understand easier that pre-allocated space would count
as "used" space as it is not free!
