Subject: [PATCH 2/3] f2fs: add sysfs entries to select the gc policy
From: Namjae Jeon <namjae.jeon@...sung.com>
Add sysfs entry gc_idle to control the gc policy. Where
gc_idle = 1 corresponds to selecting a cost benefit approach,
while gc_idle = 2 corresponds to selecting a greedy approach
to garbage collection. The selection is mutually exclusive one
approach will work at any point. If gc_idle = 0, then this
option is disabled.
