    Merge tag 'for-f2fs-3.14' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/jaegeuk/f2fs · 0d90d638
    Linus Torvalds authored
    Pull f2fs updates from Jaegeuk Kim:
     "In this round, a couple of sysfs entries were introduced to tune the
      f2fs at runtime.
    
      In addition, f2fs starts to support inline_data and improves the
      read/write performance in some workloads by refactoring bio-related
      flows.
    
      This patch-set includes the following major enhancement patches.
       - support inline_data
       - refactor bio operations such as merge operations and rw type
         assignment
       - enhance the direct IO path
       - enhance bio operations
       - truncate a node page when it becomes obsolete
       - add sysfs entries: small_discards, max_victim_search, and
         in-place-update
       - add a sysfs entry to control max_victim_search
    
      The other bug fixes are as follows.
       - fix a bug in truncate_partial_nodes
       - avoid warnings during sparse and build process
       - fix error handling flows
       - fix potential bit overflows
    
      And, there are a bunch of cleanups"
