I don't know exactly what you mean, but 4.14 kernel has this patch. It's easy to verify by changed messages ("enabling ssd optimizations" vs "enabling SSD mode").

I'm not sure how to ask BTRFS maintainers and why I would do so, because patch description suggests that it should be backported and has notes about it:

    Backporting notes

Notes for whoever wants to backport this patch to their 4.9 LTS kernel:
* First apply commit 951e796 "btrfs: drop the nossd flag when
  remounting with -o ssd", or fixup the differences manually.
* The rest of the conflicts are because of the fs_info refactoring. So,
  for example, instead of using fs_info, it's root->fs_info in
  extent-tree.c
