And certainly Oracle Linux gives you the best access to Chris Mason's btrfs work in its most polished form, for now.
As much as I wish this were still 100% true, I should point out that Chris Mason left Oracle for Fusion-IO a while ago. However, Oracle does have Liu Bo and Anand Jain on our mainline kernel development team and both of them work on btrfs full time. We've also just released our Unbreakable Enterprise Kernel Release 3 for Oracle Linux 6 (x86_64), which is based on the 3.8 mainline and contains significant btrfs improvements over the previous 3.0-based UEK2.
