This patch makes clearer the ambiguous f2fs_gc flow as follows.
1. Remove intermediate checkpoint condition during f2fs_gc
(i.e., should_do_checkpoint() and GC_BLOCKED)
2. Remove unnecessary return values of f2fs_gc because of #1.
(i.e., GC_NODE, GC_OK, etc)
3. Simplify write_checkpoint() because of #2.
4. Clarify the main f2fs_gc flow.
o monitor how many freed sections during one iteration of do_garbage_collect().
o do GC more without checkpoints if we can't get enough free sections.
o do checkpoint once we've got enough free sections through forground GCs.
5. Adopt thread-logging (Slack-Space-Recycle) scheme more aggressively on data
log types. See. get_ssr_segement()

Let's remove the use of page_cache_release() in f2fs, and instead, use
f2fs_put_page(page, 0) which is exactly same but for code readability.

for one thing, it doesn't (and shouldn't) use anything else from dentry;
for another, on some call chains the dentry is fake and should
be eliminated completely.

If some small bios of dirty node pages are supposed to be issued during the
sequential data writes, there-in well-produced consecutive data bios are able
to be split by the small node bios, resulting in performance degradation.
So, let's collect a number of dirty node pages until reaching a threshold.
And, by default, I set the threshold as 2MB, a segment size.
This improves sequential write performance on i5, 512GB SSD (830 w/ SATA2) as
follows.
Before: 231 MB/s -> After: 255 MB/s

The new_node_page() is processed as the following procedure.
1. A new node page is allocated.
2. Set PageUptodate with proper footer information.
3. Check if there is a free space for allocation
4.a. If there is no space, f2fs returns with -ENOSPC.
4.b. Otherwise, go next.
In the case of step #4.a, f2fs remains a wrong node page in the page cache
with the uptodate flag.
Also, even though a new node page is allocated successfully, an error can be
occurred afterwards due to allocation failure of the other data structures.
In such a case, remove_inode_page() would be triggered, so that we have to
clear uptodate flag in truncate_node() too.
So, we should remove the uptodate flag, if allocation is failed.

Ruslan reported that f2fs hangs with an infinite loop in f2fs_sync_file():
while (sync_node_pages(sbi, inode->i_ino, &wbc) == 0)
f2fs_write_inode(inode, NULL);
The reason was revealed that the cold flag is not set even thought this inode is
a normal file. Therefore, sync_node_pages() skips to write node blocks since it
only writes cold node blocks.
The cold flag is stored to the node_footer in node block, and whenever a new
node page is allocated, it is set according to its file type, file or directory.
But, after sudden-power-off, when recovering the inode page, f2fs doesn't recover
its cold flag.
So, let's assign the cold flag in more right places.
One more thing:
If f2fs_write_inode() returns an error due to whatever situations, there would
be no dirty node pages so that sync_node_pages() returns zero.
(i.e., zero means nothing was written.)

When CONFIG_CC_OPTIMIZE_FOR_SIZE is enabled in the kernel, -Os optimisation
flag is passed to gcc for compilation, and somehow while trying to optimize
the code, compiler is might not able to see the initialisation of variable
ne struct variable inside the get_node_info() function and results into
following warning:
fs/f2fs/node.c: In function 'get_node_info':
fs/f2fs/node.c:175:3: warning: 'ne.block_addr' may be used uninitialized in
this function [-Wuninitialized]
fs/f2fs/node.c:265:24: note: 'ne.block_addr' was declared here
fs/f2fs/node.c:176:3: warning: 'ne.ino' may be used uninitialized in this

this function [-Wuninitialized]
fs/f2fs/node.c:265:24: note: 'ne.version' was declared here
Hence, lets initialise the ne struct variable to zero, which will remove
this warning and also doing this does not seems to making any impact on the
code behavior.

This patch should resolve the bugs reported by the sparse tool.
Initial reports were written by "kbuild test robot" managed by fengguang.wu.
In my local machines, I've tested also by running:
> make C=2 CF="-D__CHECK_ENDIAN__"
Accordingly, I've found lots of warnings and bugs related to the endian
conversion. And I've fixed all at this moment.

This adds specific functions to manage NAT pages, a cache for NAT entries, free
nids, direct/indirect node blocks for indexing data, and address space for node
pages.
- The key information of an NAT entry consists of a node id and a block address.
- An NAT page is composed of block addresses covered by a certain range of NAT
entries, which is maintained by the address space of meta_inode.
- A radix tree structure is used to cache NAT entries. The index for the tree
is a node id.
- When there is no free nid, F2FS should scan NAT entries to find new one. In
order to avoid scanning frequently, F2FS manages a list containing a number of
free nids in memory. Only when free nids in the list are exhausted, scanning
process, build_free_nids(), is triggered.
- F2FS has direct and indirect node blocks for indexing data. This patch adds
fuctions related to the node block management such as getting, allocating, and
truncating node blocks to index data.
- In order to cache node blocks in memory, F2FS has a node_inode with an address
space for node pages. This patch also adds the address space operations for
node_inode.
