[PATCH 2/7] f2fs: avoid writing 0'th page in volatile writes
From: Jaegeuk Kim
Date: Mon Apr 25 2016 - 20:09:15 EST
The first page of volatile writes usually contains a sort of header information
which will be used for recovery.
(e.g., journal header of sqlite)
If this is written without other journal data, user needs to handle the stale
journal information.
