In this cycle, f2fs has some performance improvements for Android workloads such
as using read-unfair rwsems and adding some sysfs entries to control GCs and
discard commands in more details. In addtiion, it has some tunings to improve
the recovery speed after sudden power-cut.
Enhancement:
- add reader-unfair rwsems with F2FS_UNFAIR_RWSEM
: will replace with generic API support
- adjust to make the readahead/recovery flow more efficiently
- sysfs entries to control issue speeds of GCs and Discard commands
- enable idmapped mounts
Bug fix:
- correct wrong error handling routines
- fix missing conditions in quota
- fix a potential deadlock between writeback and block plug routines
- fix a deadlock btween freezefs and evict_inode
We've added some boundary checks to avoid kernel panics on corrupted images,
and several minor code clean-ups.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
