Previously, f2fs doesn't support direct IOs with high performance, which throws
every write requests via the buffered write path, resulting in highly
performance degradation due to memory opeations like copy_from_user.
This patch introduces a new direct IO path in which every write requests are
processed by generic blockdev_direct_IO() with enhanced get_block function.
The get_data_block() in f2fs handles:
1. if original data blocks are allocates, then give them to blockdev.
2. otherwise,
a. preallocate requested block addresses
b. do not use extent cache for better performance
c. give the block addresses to blockdev
This policy induces that:
- new allocated data are sequentially written to the disk
- updated data are randomly written to the disk.
- f2fs gives consistency on its file meta, not file data.

This patch introduces new sysfs entries for users to control the policy of
in-place-updates, namely IPU, in f2fs.
Sometimes f2fs suffers from performance degradation due to its out-of-place
update policy that produces many additional node block writes.
If the storage performance is very dependant on the amount of data writes
instead of IO patterns, we'd better drop this out-of-place update policy.
This patch suggests 5 polcies and their triggering conditions as follows.
[sysfs entry name = ipu_policy]
0: F2FS_IPU_FORCE all the time,
1: F2FS_IPU_SSR if SSR mode is activated,
2: F2FS_IPU_UTIL if FS utilization is over threashold,
3: F2FS_IPU_SSR_UTIL if SSR mode is activated and FS utilization is over
threashold,
4: F2FS_IPU_DISABLE disable IPU. (=default option)
[sysfs entry name = min_ipu_util]
This parameter controls the threshold to trigger in-place-updates.
The number indicates percentage of the filesystem utilization, and used by
F2FS_IPU_UTIL and F2FS_IPU_SSR_UTIL policies.
For more details, see need_inplace_update() in segment.h.

3. sync_meta_pages

Previously f2fs submits most of write requests using WRITE_SYNC, but f2fs_write_data_pages
submits last write requests by sync_mode flags callers pass.
This causes a performance problem since continuous pages with different sync flags
can't be merged in cfq IO scheduler(thanks yu chao for pointing it out), and synchronous
requests often take more time.
This patch makes the following modifies to DATA writebacks:
1. every page will be written back using the sync mode caller pass.
2. only pages with the same sync mode can be merged in one bio request.
These changes are restricted to DATA pages.Other types of writebacks are modified
To remain synchronous.
In my test with tiotest, f2fs sequence write performance is improved by about 7%-10% ,
and this patch has no obvious impact on other performance tests.

In find_fsync_dnodes() and recover_data(), our flow is like this:
->f2fs_submit_page_bio()
-> f2fs_put_page()
-> page_cache_release() ---- page->_count declined to zero.
->__free_pages()
-> put_page_testzero() ---- page->_count will be declined again.
We will get a segment fault in put_page_testzero when CONFIG_DEBUG_VM
is on, or return MM with a bad page with wrong _count num.
So let's just release this page.

Previously f2fs allocates its own bi_private data structure all the time even
though we don't use it. But, can we remove this bi_private allocation?
This patch removes such the additional bi_private allocation.
1. Retrieve f2fs_sb_info from its page->mapping->host->i_sb.
- This removes the usecases of bi_private in end_io.
2. Use bi_private only when we really need it.
- The bi_private is used only when the checkpoint procedure is conducted.
- When conducting the checkpoint, f2fs submits a META_FLUSH bio to wait its bio
completion.
- Since we have no dependancies to remove bi_private now, let's just use
bi_private pointer as the completion pointer.

Add new inode flags F2FS_INLINE_DATA and FI_INLINE_DATA to indicate
whether the inode has inline data.
Inline data makes use of inode block's data indices region to save small
file. Currently there are 923 data indices in an inode block. Since
inline xattr has made use of the last 50 indices to save its data, there
are 873 indices left which can be used for inline data. When
FI_INLINE_DATA is set, the layout of inode block's indices region is
like below:
+-----------------+
| | Reserved. reserve_new_block() will make use of
| i_addr[0] | i_addr[0] when we need to reserve a new data block
| | to convert inline data into regular one's.
|-----------------|
| | Used by inline data. A file whose size is less than
| i_addr[1~872] | 3488 bytes(~3.4k) and doesn't reserve extra
| | blocks by fallocate() can be saved here.
|-----------------|

| i_addr[873~922] | Reserved for inline xattr

The f2fs has three bio types, NODE, DATA, and META, and manages some data
structures per each bio types.
The codes are a little bit messy, thus, this patch introduces a bio array
which groups individual data structures as follows.
struct f2fs_bio_info {
struct bio *bio; /* bios to merge */
sector_t last_block_in_bio; /* last block number */
struct mutex io_mutex; /* mutex for bio */
};
struct f2fs_sb_info {
...
struct f2fs_bio_info write_io[NR_PAGE_TYPE]; /* for write bios */
...
};

The f2fs manages an extent cache to search a number of consecutive data blocks
very quickly.
However it conducts unnecessary cache operations if the file is highly
fragmented with no valid extent cache.
In such the case, we don't need to handle the extent cache, but just can disable
the cache facility.
Nevertheless, this patch gives one more chance to enable the extent cache.
For example,
1. create a file
2. write data sequentially which produces a large valid extent cache
3. update some data, resulting in a fragmented extent
4. if the fragmented extent is too small, then drop extent cache
5. close the file
6. open the file again
7. give another chance to make a new extent cache
8. write data sequentially again which creates another big extent cache.
