Re: [PATCH] f2fs: fix heap mode to reset it back

From: Yunlong Song

The old commit allocates hot data & nodes in the beginning of partition both for heap and
noheap mode. But from the commit message, the heap mode should be like before, i.e.,
allocate hot data & nodes from curseg to left.

Commit 7a20b8a61eff81bdb7097a578752a74860e9d142 ("f2fs: allocate node
and hot data in the beginning of partition") introduces another mount
option, heap, to reset it back. But it does not do anything for heap
mode, so fix it.
I think Jaegeuk did three things in that patch:
a) add missing heap mount option handling in ->show_options.
b) set noheap by default.
c) change allocation policy to the one that allocate hotdata & nodes in the
front of main are intensively.

They could be separated, independent, and I don't see such intention that
we can only use c) the new introduced allocation policy in noheap mode.

Anyway, I think Jaegeuk can help to double check that.

Thanks,
