Chao Yu 60dcedc997 f2fs: record inode updating status correctly
We should record updating status of inode only for living inode, for those
unlinked inode it needs to clear its ino cache, otherwise after the ino
was been reused, it will cause unneeded node page writing during ->fsync.

Jaegeuk Kim 7c45729a4d f2fs: keep dirty inodes selectively for checkpoint
This is to avoid no free segment bug during checkpoint caused by a number of
dirty inodes.

The case was reported by Chao like this.
1. mount with lazytime option
2. fill 4k file until disk is full
3. sync filesystem
4. read all files in the image
5. umount

In this case, we actually don't need to flush dirty inode to inode page during
checkpoint.

Chao Yu a11b9f65ea f2fs: clear nlink if fail to add_link
We don't need to keep incomplete created inode in cache, so if we fail to
add link into directory during new inode creation, it's better to set
nlink of inode to zero, then we can evict inode immediately. Otherwise
release of nid belong to inode will be delayed until inode cache is being
shrunk, it may cause a seemingly endless loop while allocating free nids
in time of testing generic/269 case of fstest suit.

Chao Yu 1ecc0c5c50 f2fs: support configuring fault injection per superblock
Previously, we only support global fault injection configuration, so that
when we configure type/rate of fault injection through sysfs, mount
option, it will influence all f2fs partition which is being used.

It is not make sence, since it will be not convenient if developer want
to test separated partitions with different fault injection rate/type
simultaneously, also it's not possible to enable fault injection in one
partition and disable fault injection in other one.

>From now on, we move global configuration of fault injection in module
into per-superblock, hence injection testing can be more flexible.

Chao Yu 13ec7297e5 f2fs: fix to release inode correctly
In following call stack, if unfortunately we lose all chances to truncate
inode page in remove_inode_page, eventually we will add the nid allocated
previously into free nid cache, this nid is with NID_NEW status and with
NEW_ADDR in its blkaddr pointer:

 - f2fs_create
  - f2fs_add_link
   - __f2fs_add_link
    - init_inode_metadata
     - new_inode_page
      - new_node_page
       - set_node_addr(, NEW_ADDR)
     - f2fs_init_acl   failed
     - remove_inode_page  failed
  - handle_failed_inode
   - remove_inode_page  failed
   - iput
    - f2fs_evict_inode
     - remove_inode_page  failed
     - alloc_nid_failed   cache a nid with valid blkaddr: NEW_ADDR

This may not only cause resource leak of previous inode, but also may cause
incorrect use of the previous blkaddr which is located in NO.nid node entry
when this nid is reused by others.

This patch tries to add this inode to orphan list if we fail to truncate
inode, so that we can obtain a second chance to release it in orphan
recovery flow.

As suggested by Herbert Xu, we shouldn't allocate a new tfm each time
we read or write a page.  Instead we can use a single tfm hanging off
the inode's crypt_info structure for all of our encryption needs for
that inode, since the tfm can be used by multiple crypto requests in
parallel.

Also use cmpxchg() to avoid races that could result in crypt_info
structure getting doubly allocated or doubly freed.

With normal extent info cache, we records largest extent mapping between logical

When we enable extent tree cache, if extent info of on-disk inode is exist, and
the extent is not a small fragmented mapping extent. We'd better to load the
extent info into extent tree cache when inode is loaded. By this way we can have
more chance to hit extent tree cache rather than taking more time to read dnode
page for block address.

Jaegeuk Kim 3c6c2bebef f2fs: avoid punch_hole overhead when releasing volatile data
This patch is to avoid some punch_hole overhead when releasing volatile data.
If volatile data was not written yet, we just can make the first page as zero.

Chao Yu 1dcc336b02 f2fs: enable rb-tree extent cache
This patch enables rb-tree based extent cache in f2fs.

When we mount with "-o extent_cache", f2fs will try to add recently accessed
page-block mappings into rb-tree based extent cache as much as possible, instead
of original one extent info cache.

By this way, f2fs can support more effective cache between dnode page cache and
disk. It will supply high hit ratio in the cache with fewer memory when dnode
page cache are reclaimed in environment of low memory.

Chao Yu 0c872e2ded f2fs: move ext_lock out of struct extent_info
Move ext_lock out of struct extent_info, then in the following patches we can
use variables with struct extent_info type as a parameter to pass pure data.

Chao Yu 9e5ba77fdb f2fs: get rid of kzalloc in __recover_inline_status
We use kzalloc to allocate memory in __recover_inline_status, and use this
all-zero memory to check the inline date content of inode page by comparing
them. This is low effective and not needed, let's check inline date content
directly.

Jaegeuk Kim 1e84371ffe f2fs: change atomic and volatile write policies
This patch adds two new ioctls to release inmemory pages grabbed by atomic
writes.
 o f2fs_ioc_abort_volatile_write
  - If transaction was failed, all the grabbed pages and data should be written.
 o f2fs_ioc_release_volatile_write
  - This is to enhance the performance of PERSIST mode in sqlite.

In order to avoid huge memory consumption which causes OOM, this patch changes
volatile writes to use normal dirty pages, instead blocked flushing to the disk
as long as system does not suffer from memory pressure.
