Merge tag 'for-f2fs-4.5' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/jaegeuk/f2fs
Pull f2fs updates from Jaegeuk Kim:
"This series adds two ioctls to control cached data and fragmented
files. Most of the rest fixes missing error cases and bugs that we
have not covered so far. Summary:
Enhancements:
- support an ioctl to execute online file defragmentation
- support an ioctl to flush cached data
- speed up shrinking of extent_cache entries
- handle broken superblock
- refector dirty inode management infra
- revisit f2fs_map_blocks to handle more cases
- reduce global lock coverage
- add detecting user's idle time
Major bug fixes:
- fix data race condition on cached nat entries
- fix error cases of volatile and atomic writes"
