[PATCH] f2fs: add a way to limit roll forward recovery time

From: Jaegeuk Kim
Date: Thu Jan 27 2022 - 16:41:20 EST


This adds a sysfs entry to call checkpoint during fsync() in order to avoid
long elapsed time to run roll-forward recovery when booting the device.

Description: You can set the trial count limit for GC urgent high mode with this value.
If GC thread gets to the limit, the mode will turn back to GC normal mode.
By default, the value is zero, which means there is no limit like before.
