This patch makes clearer the ambiguous f2fs_gc flow as follows.

1. Remove intermediate checkpoint condition during f2fs_gc
 (i.e., should_do_checkpoint() and GC_BLOCKED)

2. Remove unnecessary return values of f2fs_gc because of #1.
 (i.e., GC_NODE, GC_OK, etc)

3. Simplify write_checkpoint() because of #2.

4. Clarify the main f2fs_gc flow.
 o monitor how many freed sections during one iteration of do_garbage_collect().
 o do GC more without checkpoints if we can't get enough free sections.
 o do checkpoint once we've got enough free sections through forground GCs.

5. Adopt thread-logging (Slack-Space-Recycle) scheme more aggressively on data
  log types. See. get_ssr_segement()

Instead of evaluating the free_sections and then deciding to return
true/false from that path. We can directly use the evaluation condition
for returning proper value.

Introduce accessor to get the sections based upon the block type
(node,dents...) and modify the functions : should_do_checkpoint,
has_not_enough_free_secs to use this accessor function to get
the node sections and dent sections.

Practically, has_not_enough_free_secs() should calculate with the numbers of
current node and directory data blocks together.
Actually the equation was implemented in need_to_flush().

So, this patch removes need_flush() and moves the equation into
has_not_enough_free_secs().

Do cleanup more for better code readability.

- Change the parameter set of f2fs_bio_alloc()
  This function should allocate a bio only since it is not something like
  f2fs_bio_init(). Instead, the caller should initialize the allocated bio.

- Introduce SECTOR_FROM_BLOCK
  This macro translates a block address to its sector address.

As pointed out by Randy Dunlap, this patch removes all usage of "/**" for comment
blocks. Instead, just use "/*".

This adds the following major in-memory structures in f2fs.

- f2fs_sb_info:
  contains f2fs-specific information, two special inode pointers for node and
  meta address spaces, and orphan inode management.

- f2fs_inode_info:
  contains vfs_inode and other fs-specific information.

- f2fs_nm_info:
  contains node manager information such as NAT entry cache, free nid list,
  and NAT page management.

- f2fs_node_info:
  represents a node as node id, inode number, block address, and its version.

- f2fs_sm_info:
  contains segment manager information such as SIT entry cache, free segment
  map, current active logs, dirty segment management, and segment utilization.
  The specific structures are sit_info, free_segmap_info, dirty_seglist_info,
  curseg_info.

In addition, add F2FS_SUPER_MAGIC in magic.h.
