Subject: Re: [f2fs-dev][PATCH 2/2] f2fs: enable recover_xattr_data to avoid
 cp when fsync after operating xattr

You're trying to change the writing policy as xattr blocks are written into
WARM_NODE area instead of COLD_NODE area.
I don't think xattrs are frequently changed between each fsync calls.

How do you think?
