Pull f2fs updates from Jaegeuk Kim:
 "This patch-set includes the following major enhancement patches:
   - support inline xattrs
   - add sysfs support to control GCs explicitly

  The other bug fixes are as follows:
   - avoid the overflow on status calculation
   - fix some error handling routines
   - fix inconsistent xattr states after power-off-recovery
   - fix incorrect xattr node offset definition
   - fix deadlock condition in fsync
   - fix the fdatasync routine for power-off-recovery"

+mkfs.f2fs
+---------
+The mkfs.f2fs is for the use of formatting a partition as the f2fs filesystem,
+which builds a basic on-disk layout.
+
+The options consist of:
 -l [label]   : Give a volume label, up to 512 unicode name.
 -a [0 or 1]  : Split start location of each area for heap-based allocation.
                1 is set by default, which performs this.

+fsck.f2fs
+---------
+The fsck.f2fs is a tool to check the consistency of an f2fs-formatted
+partition, which examines whether the filesystem metadata and user-made data
+are cross-referenced correctly or not.
+Note that, initial version of the tool does not fix any inconsistency.
+
+The options consist of:
+  -d debug level [default:0]
+
+dump.f2fs
+---------
+The dump.f2fs shows the information of specific inode and dumps SSA and SIT to
+file. Each file is dump_ssa and dump_sit.
+
+The dump.f2fs is used to debug on-disk data structures of the f2fs filesystem.
+It shows on-disk inode information reconized by a given inode number, and is
+able to dump all the SSA and SIT entries into predefined files, ./dump_ssa and
+./dump_sit respectively.
+
+The options consist of:
+  -d debug level [default:0]
+  -i inode no (hex)
+  -s [SIT dump segno from #1~#2 (decimal), for all 0~-1]
+  -a [SSA dump segno from #1~#2 (decimal), for all 0~-1]
