[PATCH] f2fs: skip direct I/O iostat work when disabled

[Wenjie Qi]

F2FS iostat is optional and is disabled by default, but the direct
I/O submit path still allocates and binds a bio_iostat_ctx, updates
the submit timestamp, and replaces bi_end_io for every DIO bio even
when sbi->iostat_enable is false.

The end_io path also calls f2fs_update_iostat(), which returns
immediately when iostat is disabled. This adds avoidable per-bio
overhead to the default direct I/O hot path.

Skip DIO iostat context setup and the direct read/write byte updates
when iostat is disabled. If iostat is enabled through sysfs before
submission, the existing context allocation and latency accounting path
is still used.

QEMU benchmark on a 1GiB F2FS virtio-blk image, with iostat_enable=0,
4KiB O_DIRECT I/O over a 64MiB file, 50000 iterations per run:

                         baseline     patched
  direct_read median    65264.50 ns  55470.95 ns
  direct_read recheck   65553.75 ns  55470.95 ns
  direct_write median   68054.62 ns  56309.44 ns
  direct_write recheck  66873.51 ns  56309.44 ns
