Pull f2fs updates from Jaegeuk Kim:
 "In this round, we've refactored the existing atomic write support
  implemented by in-memory operations to have storing data in disk
  temporarily, which can give us a benefit to accept more atomic writes.

  At the same time, we removed the existing volatile write support.

  We've also revisited the file pinning and GC flows and found some
  corner cases which contributeed abnormal system behaviours.

  As usual, there're several minor code refactoring for readability,
  sanity check, and clean ups.

  Enhancements:

   - allow compression for mmap files in compress_mode=user

   - kill volatile write support

   - change the current atomic write way

   - give priority to select unpinned section for foreground GC

   - introduce data read/write showing path info

   - remove unnecessary f2fs_lock_op in f2fs_new_inode

  Bug fixes:

   - fix the file pinning flow during checkpoint=disable and GCs

   - fix foreground and background GCs to select the right victims and
     get free sections on time

   - fix GC flags on defragmenting pages

   - avoid an infinite loop to flush node pages

   - fix fallocate to use file_modified to update permissions
     consistently"

Almost all other initialization of variables in f2fs_fill_super are
extraced to a single function. Also do it for write_io[], which can
make code more clean.

This patch just refactors the code, theres no functional change.

Current atomic write has three major issues like below.
 - keeps the updates in non-reclaimable memory space and they are even
   hard to be migrated, which is not good for contiguous memory
   allocation.
 - disk spaces used for atomic files cannot be garbage collected, so
   this makes it difficult for the filesystem to be defragmented.
 - If atomic write operations hit the threshold of either memory usage
   or garbage collection failure count, All the atomic write operations
   will fail immediately.

To resolve the issues, I will keep a COW inode internally for all the
updates to be flushed from memory, when we need to flush them out in a
situation like high memory pressure. These COW inodes will be tagged
as orphan inodes to be reclaimed in case of sudden power-cut or system
failure during atomic writes.

While converting f2fs_release_page() to f2fs_release_folio(), cache the
sb_info so we don't need to retrieve it twice, and remove the redundant
call to set_page_private().  The use of folios should be pushed further
into f2fs from here.

This is a "weak" conversion which converts straight back to using pages.
A full conversion should be performed at some point, hopefully by
someone familiar with the filesystem.
