Pull f2fs updates from Jaegeuk Kim:
 "In this round, we've tuned f2fs to improve general performance by
  serializing block allocation and enhancing discard flows like fstrim
  which avoids user IO contention. And we've added fsync_mode=nobarrier
  which gives an option to user where it skips issuing cache_flush
  commands to underlying flash storage. And there are many bug fixes
  related to fuzzed images, revoked atomic writes, quota ops, and minor
  direct IO.

  Enhancements:
   - add fsync_mode=nobarrier which bypasses cache_flush command
   - enhance the discarding flow which avoids user IOs and issues in
     LBA order
   - readahead some encrypted blocks during GC
   - enable in-memory inode checksum to verify the blocks if
     F2FS_CHECK_FS is set
   - enhance nat_bits behavior
   - set -o discard by default
   - set REQ_RAHEAD to bio in ->readpages

  Bug fixes:
   - fix a corner case to corrupt atomic_writes revoking flow
   - revisit i_gc_rwsem to fix race conditions
   - fix some dio behaviors captured by xfstests
   - correct handling errors given by quota-related failures
   - add many sanity check flows to avoid fuzz test failures
   - add more error number propagation to their callers
   - fix several corner cases to continue fault injection w/ shutdown
     loop"
