There's no need to use '#if defined(__KERNEL__)' in kernel source files.

Likewise for compat_f2fs_move_range.

I still don't understand why this checkpoint-related stuff is getting added
here, and only to the compat versions of the ioctls.  It wasn't in the original
version.  If they are needed then they should be added to __f2fs_ioc_gc_range()
and __f2fs_ioc_move_range() (preferably by a separate patch) so that they are
done for both the native and compat versions of these ioctls.
