In scenario of intensively node allocation, free nids will be ran out
soon, then it needs to stop to load free nids by traversing NAT blocks,
in worse case, if NAT blocks does not be cached in memory, it generates
IOs which slows down our foreground operations.
In order to speed up node allocation, in this patch we introduce a new
free_nid_bitmap array, so there is an bitmap table for each NAT block,
Once the NAT block is loaded, related bitmap cache will be switched on,
and bitmap will be set during traversing nat entries in NAT block, later
we can query and update nid usage status in memory completely.
With such implementation, I expect performance of node allocation can be
improved in the long-term after filesystem image is mounted.

This patches adds bitmaps to represent empty or full NAT blocks containing
free nid entries.
If we can find valid crc|cp_ver in the last block of checkpoint pack, we'll
use these bitmaps when building free nids. In order to avoid checkpointing
burden, up-to-date bitmaps will be flushed only during umount time. So,
normally we can get this gain, but when power-cut happens, we rely on fsck.f2fs
which recovers this bitmap again.
After this patch, we build free nids from nid #0 at mount time to make more
full NAT blocks, but in runtime, we check empty NAT blocks to load free nids
without loading any NAT pages from disk.

This patch implements IO alignment by filling dummy blocks in DATA and NODE
write bios. If we can guarantee, for example, 32KB or 64KB for such the IOs,
we can eliminate underlying dummy page problem which FTL conducts in order to
close MLC or TLC partial written pages.
Note that,
- it requires "-o mode=lfs".
- IO size should be power of 2, not exceed BIO_MAX_PAGES, 256.
- read IO is still 4KB.
- do checkpoint at fsync, if dummy NODE page was written.

This patch implements multiple devices support for f2fs.
Given multiple devices by mkfs.f2fs, f2fs shows them entirely as one big
volume under one f2fs instance.
Internal block management is very simple, but we will modify block allocation
and background GC policy to boost IO speed by exploiting them accoording to
each device speed.

Previously, we used cp_version only to detect recoverable dnodes.
In order to avoid same garbage cp_version, we needed to truncate the next
dnode during checkpoint, resulting in additional discard or data write.
If we can distinguish this by using crc in addition to cp_version, we can
remove this overhead.
There is backward compatibility concern where it changes node_footer layout.
So, this patch introduces a new checkpoint flag, CP_CRC_RECOVERY_FLAG, to
detect new layout. New layout will be activated only when this flag is set.

The reason is: when doing the inline dir conversion, we didn't consider
that directory has hierarchical hash structure which can be configured
through sysfs interface 'dir_level'.
By default, dir_level of directory inode is 0, it means we have one bucket
in hash table located in first level, all dirents will be hashed in this
bucket, so it has no problem for us to do the duplication simply between
inline dentry page and converted normal dentry page.
However, if we configured dir_level with the value N (greater than 0), it
will expand the bucket number of first level hash table by 2^N - 1, it
hashs dirents into different buckets according their hash value, if we
still move all dirents to first bucket, it makes incorrent locating for
inline dirents, the result is, although we can iterate all dirents through
->readdir, we can't stat some of them in ->lookup which based on hash
table searching.
This patch fixes this issue by rehashing dirents into correct position
when converting inline directory.

PAGE_CACHE_{SIZE,SHIFT,MASK,ALIGN} macros were introduced *long* time
ago with promise that one day it will be possible to implement page
cache with bigger chunks than PAGE_SIZE.
This promise never materialized. And unlikely will.
We have many places where PAGE_CACHE_SIZE assumed to be equal to
PAGE_SIZE. And it's constant source of confusion on whether
PAGE_CACHE_* or PAGE_* constant should be used in a particular case,
especially on the border between fs and mm.
Global switching to PAGE_CACHE_SIZE != PAGE_SIZE would cause to much
breakage to be doable.
Let's stop pretending that pages in page cache are special. They are
not.
The changes are pretty straight-forward:
- <foo> << (PAGE_CACHE_SHIFT - PAGE_SHIFT) -> <foo>;
- <foo> >> (PAGE_CACHE_SHIFT - PAGE_SHIFT) -> <foo>;
- PAGE_CACHE_{SIZE,SHIFT,MASK,ALIGN} -> PAGE_{SIZE,SHIFT,MASK,ALIGN};
- page_cache_get() -> get_page();
- page_cache_release() -> put_page();
This patch contains automated changes generated with coccinelle using
script below. For some reason, coccinelle doesn't patch header files.
I've called spatch for them manually.
The only adjustment after coccinelle is revert of changes to
PAGE_CAHCE_ALIGN definition: we are going to drop it later.
There are few places in the code where coccinelle didn't reach. I'll
fix them manually in a separate patch. Comments and documentation also
will be addressed with the separate patch.

If f2fs was corrupted with missing dot dentries, it needs to recover them after
fsck.f2fs detection.
The underlying precedure is:
1. The fsck.f2fs remains F2FS_INLINE_DOTS flag in directory inode, if it detects
missing dot dentries.
2. When f2fs looks up the corrupted directory, it triggers f2fs_add_link with
proper inode numbers and their dot and dotdot names.
3. Once f2fs recovers the directory without errors, it removes F2FS_INLINE_DOTS
finally.

This patch introduces an i_dir_level field to support large directory.
Previously, f2fs maintains multi-level hash tables to find a dentry quickly
from a bunch of chiild dentries in a directory, and the hash tables consist of
the following tree structure as below.
In Documentation/filesystems/f2fs.txt,
----------------------
A : bucket
B : block
N : MAX_DIR_HASH_DEPTH
----------------------
level #0 | A(2B)
|
level #1 | A(2B) - A(2B)
|
level #2 | A(2B) - A(2B) - A(2B) - A(2B)
. | . . . .
level #N/2 | A(2B) - A(2B) - A(2B) - A(2B) - A(2B) - ... - A(2B)
. | . . . .
level #N | A(4B) - A(4B) - A(4B) - A(4B) - A(4B) - ... - A(4B)
But, if we can guess that a directory will handle a number of child files,
we don't need to traverse the tree from level #0 to #N all the time.
Since the lower level tables contain relatively small number of dentries,
the miss ratio of the target dentry is likely to be high.
In order to avoid that, we can configure the hash tables sparsely from level #0
like this.
level #0 | A(2B) - A(2B) - A(2B) - A(2B)
level #1 | A(2B) - A(2B) - A(2B) - A(2B) - A(2B) - ... - A(2B)
. | . . . .
level #N/2 | A(2B) - A(2B) - A(2B) - A(2B) - A(2B) - ... - A(2B)
. | . . . .
level #N | A(4B) - A(4B) - A(4B) - A(4B) - A(4B) - ... - A(4B)
With this structure, we can skip the ineffective tree searches in lower level
hash tables.
This patch adds just a facility for this by introducing i_dir_level in
f2fs_inode.

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
