This patch introduces a runtime hot/cold data separation method
for f2fs, in order to improve the accuracy for data temperature
classification, reduce the garbage collection overhead after
long-term data updates.
Enhanced hot/cold data separation can record data block update
frequency as "age" of the extent per inode, and take use of the age
info to indicate better temperature type for data block allocation:
- It records total data blocks allocated since mount;
- When file extent has been updated, it calculate the count of data
blocks allocated since last update as the age of the extent;
- Before the data block allocated, it searches for the age info and
chooses the suitable segment for allocation.
Test and result:
- Prepare: create about 30000 files
* 3% for cold files (with cold file extension like .apk, from 3M to 10M)
* 50% for warm files (with random file extension like .FcDxq, from 1K
to 4M)
* 47% for hot files (with hot file extension like .db, from 1K to 256K)
- create(5%)/random update(90%)/delete(5%) the files
* total write amount is about 70G
* fsync will be called for .db files, and buffered write will be used
for other files
The storage of test device is large enough(128G) so that it will not
switch to SSR mode during the test.
Benefit: dirty segment count increment reduce about 14%
- before: Dirty +21110
- after: Dirty +18286

When there is a failure in f2fs_fill_super() after/during
the recovery of fsync'd nodes, it frees the current sbi and
retries again. This time the mount is successful, but the files
that got recovered before retry, still holds the extent tree,
whose extent nodes list is corrupted since sbi and sbi->extent_list
is freed up. The list_del corruption issue is observed when the
file system is getting unmounted and when those recoverd files extent
node is being freed up in the below context.

Fix this by not creating extents for those recovered files if shrinker is
not registered yet. Once mount is successful and shrinker is registered,
those files can have extents again.

As Ted reported:
"Hi, I was looking at f2fs's sources recently, and I noticed that there
is a very large number of non-static symbols which don't have a f2fs
prefix. There's well over a hundred (see attached below).
As one example, in fs/f2fs/dir.c there is:
unsigned char get_de_type(struct f2fs_dir_entry *de)
This function is clearly only useful for f2fs, but it has a generic
name. This means that if any other file system tries to have the same
symbol name, there will be a symbol conflict and the kernel would not
successfully build. It also means that when someone is looking f2fs
sources, it's not at all obvious whether a function such as
read_data_page(), invalidate_blocks(), is a generic kernel function
found in the fs, mm, or block layers, or a f2fs specific function.
You might want to fix this at some point. Hopefully Kent's bcachefs
isn't similarly using genericly named functions, since that might
cause conflicts with f2fs's functions --- but just as this would be a
problem that we would rightly insist that Kent fix, this is something
that we should have rightly insisted that f2fs should have fixed
before it was integrated into the mainline kernel.
acquire_orphan_inode
add_ino_entry
add_orphan_inode
allocate_data_block
allocate_new_segments
alloc_nid
alloc_nid_done
alloc_nid_failed
available_free_memory
...."
This patch adds "f2fs_" prefix for all non-static symbols in order to:
a) avoid conflict with other kernel generic symbols;
b) to indicate the function is f2fs specific one instead of generic
one;

During free nid allocation, in order to do preallocation, we will tag free
nid entry as allocated one and still leave it in free nid list, for other
allocators who want to grab free nids, it needs to traverse the free nid
list for lookup. It becomes overhead in scenario of allocating free nid
intensively by multithreads.
This patch splits free nid list to two list: {free,alloc}_nid_list, to
keep free nids and preallocated free nids separately, after that, traverse
latency will be gone, besides split nid_cnt for separate statistic.
Additionally, introduce __insert_nid_to_list and __remove_nid_from_list for
cleanup.

We don't need to handle the duplicate extent information.
The integrated rule is:

- destroy extent_tree for the truncation case
- drop per-inode extent_cache by shrinker

This patch introduces a shrinker targeting to reduce memory footprint consumed
by a number of in-memory f2fs data structures.
In addition, it newly adds:
- sbi->umount_mutex to avoid data races on shrinker and put_super
- sbi->shruinker_run_no to not revisit objects
Note that the basic implementation was copied from fs/ubifs/shrinker.c
