Merge tag 'f2fs-for-4.18' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/jaegeuk/f2fs

Pull f2fs updates from Jaegeuk Kim:
 "In this round, we've mainly focused on discard, aka unmap, control
  along with fstrim for Android-specific usage model. In addition, we've
  fixed writepage flow which returned EAGAIN previously resulting in EIO
  of fsync(2) due to mapping's error state. In order to avoid old MM bug
  [1], we decided not to use __GFP_ZERO for the mapping for node and
  meta page caches. As always, we've cleaned up many places for future
  fsverity and symbol conflicts.

  Enhancements:
   - do discard/fstrim in lower priority considering fs utilization
   - split large discard commands into smaller ones for better responsiveness
   - add more sanity checks to address syzbot reports
   - add a mount option, fsync_mode=nobarrier, which can reduce # of cache flushes
   - clean up symbol namespace with modified function names
   - be strict on block allocation and IO control in corner cases

  Bug fixes:
   - don't use __GFP_ZERO for mappings
   - fix error reports in writepage to avoid fsync() failure
   - avoid selinux denial on CAP_RESOURCE on resgid/resuid
   - fix some subtle race conditions in GC/atomic writes/shutdown
   - fix overflow bugs in sanity_check_raw_super
   - fix missing bits on get_flags

  Clean-ups:
   - prepare the generic flow for future fsverity integration
   - fix some broken coding standard"
