Suggestion to improve documentation of Changes/BtrfsTransparentCompression

Just a small thing, but as someone who never actually played around with filesystems so far, I was looking to try out the changes outlined in Changes/BtrfsTransparentCompression, but the command on the page: btrfs filesystem defrag -czstd -r doesnt work without an additional argument. This is pretty obvious for people who already worked with filesystems before, but I think it would be a good idea to add a small, one sentence explanation of how to add the required path to the end of the command (ie / in my case). It would help people like me from getting confused and hopefully bring in more casual tinkerers trying the new change out. Thanks.
