ac5d156c78 f2fs: modify the number of issued pages to merge IOs
When testing f2fs on an SSD, I found some 128 page IOs followed by 1 page IO
were issued by f2fs_write_node_pages.
This means that there were some mishandling flows which degrades performance.

Previous f2fs_write_node_pages determines the number of pages to be written,
nr_to_write, as follows.

1. The bio_get_nr_vecs returns 129 pages.
2. The bio_alloc makes a room for 128 pages.
3. The initial 128 pages go into one bio.
4. The existing bio is submitted, and a new bio is prepared for the last 1 page.
5. Finally, sync_node_pages submits the last 1 page bio.

The problem is from the use of bio_get_nr_vecs, so this patch replace it
with max_hw_blocks using queue_max_sectors.

6224da875e f2fs: fix typo mistakes
Fix typo mistakes.
1. I think that it should be 'L' instead of 'V'.
2. and try to fix 'Front' instead of 'Frone'

5ec4e49f9b f2fs: change GC bitmaps to apply the section granularity
This patch removes a bitmap for victim segments selected by foreground GC, and
modifies the other bitmap for victim segments selected by background GC.

1) foreground GC bitmap
 : We don't need to manage this, since we just only one previous victim section
   number instead of the whole victim history.
   The f2fs uses the victim section number in order not to allocate currently
   GC'ed section to current active logs.

2) background GC bitmap
 : This bitmap is used to avoid selecting victims repeatedly by background GCs.
   In addition, the victims are able to be selected by foreground GCs, since
   there is no need to read victim blocks during foreground GCs.

   By the fact that the foreground GC reclaims segments in a section unit, it'd
   be better to manage this bitmap based on the section granularity.

12fc760fd6 f2fs: fix overflow when calculating utilization on 32-bit
Use div_u64 to fix overflow when calculating utilization.
*long int* is 4-bytes on 32-bit so (user blocks * 100) might be
overflow if disk size is over e.g. 512GB.

437275272f f2fs: clarify and enhance the f2fs_gc flow
This patch makes clearer the ambiguous f2fs_gc flow as follows.

1. Remove intermediate checkpoint condition during f2fs_gc
 (i.e., should_do_checkpoint() and GC_BLOCKED)

2. Remove unnecessary return values of f2fs_gc because of #1.
 (i.e., GC_NODE, GC_OK, etc)

3. Simplify write_checkpoint() because of #2.

4. Clarify the main f2fs_gc flow.
 o monitor how many freed sections during one iteration of do_garbage_collect().
 o do GC more without checkpoints if we can't get enough free sections.
 o do checkpoint once we've got enough free sections through forground GCs.

5. Adopt thread-logging (Slack-Space-Recycle) scheme more aggressively on data
  log types. See. get_ssr_segement()

b1f1daf8c7 f2fs: optimize the return condition for has_not_enough_free_secs
Instead of evaluating the free_sections and then deciding to return
true/false from that path. We can directly use the evaluation condition
for returning proper value.

5ac206cf4f f2fs: make an accessor to get sections for particular block type
Introduce accessor to get the sections based upon the block type
(node,dents...) and modify the functions : should_do_checkpoint,
has_not_enough_free_secs to use this accessor function to get
the node sections and dent sections.

029cd28c1f f2fs: fix equation of has_not_enough_free_secs()
Practically, has_not_enough_free_secs() should calculate with the numbers of
current node and directory data blocks together.
Actually the equation was implemented in need_to_flush().

So, this patch removes need_flush() and moves the equation into
has_not_enough_free_secs().

3cd8a23948 f2fs: cleanup the f2fs_bio_alloc routine
Do cleanup more for better code readability.

- Change the parameter set of f2fs_bio_alloc()
  This function should allocate a bio only since it is not something like
  f2fs_bio_init(). Instead, the caller should initialize the allocated bio.

- Introduce SECTOR_FROM_BLOCK
  This macro translates a block address to its sector address.

39a53e0ce0 f2fs: add superblock and major in-memory structure
This adds the following major in-memory structures in f2fs.

- f2fs_sb_info:
  contains f2fs-specific information, two special inode pointers for node and
  meta address spaces, and orphan inode management.

- f2fs_inode_info:
  contains vfs_inode and other fs-specific information.

- f2fs_nm_info:
  contains node manager information such as NAT entry cache, free nid list,
  and NAT page management.

- f2fs_node_info:
  represents a node as node id, inode number, block address, and its version.

- f2fs_sm_info:
  contains segment manager information such as SIT entry cache, free segment
  map, current active logs, dirty segment management, and segment utilization.
  The specific structures are sit_info, free_segmap_info, dirty_seglist_info,
  curseg_info.

In addition, add F2FS_SUPER_MAGIC in magic.h.
