[PATCH] mm: kill vma flag VM_CAN_NONLINEAR

This patch moves actual ptes filling for non-linear file mappings
into special vma operation: ->remap_pages().

File system must implement this method to get non-linear mappings support,
if it uses filemap_fault() then generic_file_remap_pages() can be used.

Now device drivers can implement this method and obtain nonlinear vma support."

The f2fs_fallocate() has two operations: punch_hole and expand_size.

Only in the case of punch_hole, dirty node pages can be produced, so let's
trigger f2fs_balance_fs() in this case only.
Furthermore, let's trigger it at every data truncation routine.

The f2fs_balance_fs() is to check the number of free sections and decide whether
it needs to conduct cleaning or not. If there are not enough free sections, the
cleaning job should be started.

In order to control an amount of free sections even under high utilization, f2fs
should call f2fs_balance_fs at all the VFS interfaces that are able to produce
dirty pages.
This patch adds the function calls in the missing interfaces as follows.

1. f2fs_setxattr()
The f2fs_setxattr() produces dirty node pages so that we should call
f2fs_balance_fs() either likewise doing in other VFS interfaces such as
f2fs_lookup(), f2fs_mkdir(), and so on.

2. f2fs_sync_file()
We should guarantee serving free sections for syncing metadata during fsync.
Previously, there is no space check before triggering checkpoint and
sync_node_pages.
Therefore, if a bunch of fsync calls are triggered under 100% of FS utilization,
f2fs is able to be faced with no free sections, resulting in BUG_ON().

3. f2fs_sync_fs()
Before calling write_checkpoint(), we should guarantee that there are minimum
free sections.

4. f2fs_write_inode()
f2fs_write_inode() is also able to produce dirty node pages.

After doing a punch hole or expanding inode doing fallocation.
The change and modification time are not update for the file.
So, update time after no issue is observed in fallocate.

Ruslan reported that f2fs hangs with an infinite loop in f2fs_sync_file():

	while (sync_node_pages(sbi, inode->i_ino, &wbc) == 0)
		f2fs_write_inode(inode, NULL);

The reason was revealed that the cold flag is not set even thought this inode is
a normal file. Therefore, sync_node_pages() skips to write node blocks since it
only writes cold node blocks.

The cold flag is stored to the node_footer in node block, and whenever a new
node page is allocated, it is set according to its file type, file or directory.

But, after sudden-power-off, when recovering the inode page, f2fs doesn't recover
its cold flag.

So, let's assign the cold flag in more right places.

One more thing:
If f2fs_write_inode() returns an error due to whatever situations, there would
be no dirty node pages so that sync_node_pages() returns zero.
(i.e., zero means nothing was written.)

The variables node_page and page_offset are initialized but never used
otherwise, so remove those unused variables.

If the filesystem is mounted as read-only then return from that point itself
instead of first doing a writeout/wait and then checking for read-only
condition.

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

This adds memory operations and file/file_inode operations.

- F2FS supports fallocate(), mmap(), fsync(), and basic ioctl().
