[PATCH v2] f2fs: add support for an i_version counter

[Yangtao Li]

NFSv4 mandates a change attribute to avoid problems with timestamp
granularity, which Linux implements using the i_version counter. This is
particularly important when the underlying filesystem is fast.

BTW introduce a new mount option to enable the iversion functionality,
and disabling it by default.
