If you add enums above, sbi will have last_time slots for DISCARD_TIME/GC_TIME.
Doesn't it make sense to add the below in f2fs_update_time(), if you want to
introduce two additional types?
/* DISCARD_TIME and GC_TIME are based on REQ_TIME */
if (type == REQ_TIME) {
sbi->last_time(DISCARD_TIME) = jiffies;
sbi->last_time(GC_TIME) = jiffies;
}

Then, we can use *type* instead of REQ_TIME?
