[PATCH v2 1/3] f2fs: support passing down write hints given by users to block layer
From: Hyunchul Lee
Date: Tue Jan 30 2018 - 21:37:53 EST
From: Hyunchul Lee <cheol.lee@xxxxxxx>
Add the 'whint_mode' mount option that controls which write
hints are passed down to block layer. There are "off" and
"user-based" mode. The default mode is "off".
1) whint_mode=off. F2FS only passes down WRITE_LIFE_NOT_SET.
2) whint_mode=user-based. F2FS tries to pass down hints given
by users.

Many thanks to Chao Yu and Jaegeuk Kim for comments to
implement this patch.

v2:
- Set "whint_mode" to off if "active_logs" is two or four
- Use a local variable to check "whint_mode" instead of sbi->whint_mode
in f2fs_direct_IO
- Fix comments about rw_hint_to_seg_type()
