[PATCH v2] f2fs: separate NOCoW and pinfile semantics

[Chao Yu]

Pinning a file is heavy, because skipping pinned files make GC
running with heavy load or no effect.

So that this patch proposes to separate nocow and pinfile semantics:
- NOCoW flag can only be set on regular file.
- NOCoW file will only trigger IPU at common writeback/flush.
- NOCow file will do OPU during GC.

This flag can satisfying the demand of:
1) avoiding fragment of file's physical block
2) userspace doesn't want to pin file's physical address

After commit 5d539245cb18 ("f2fs: export FS_NOCOW_FL flag to user"),
Pin_file and NOCoW flags have already been twined closely. e.g.
once we set pinfile flag in file, nocow flag will be shown; and after
clearing pinfile flag, nocow flag will disappear.

So, in order to keep backward compatibility, let use below semantics:

f2fs_ioc_set_pin_file/f2fs_fileattr_set logic:
		pinfile			nocow
set		set pinfile | nocow	set nocow
clear		clear pinfile | nocow	clear nocow

File Behaviors:
w/ pinfile, w/ nocow:		use pinfile semantics
w/ pinfile, w/o nocow:		use pinfile semantics
w/o pinfile, w/ nocow:		use nocow semantics
w/o pinfile, w/o nocow:		no pinfile or nocow semantics
