Subject: Re: [f2fs-dev] [PATCH v3] f2fs: rename checkpoint=merge mount option
 to checkpoint_merge

When we remount it without the "checkpoint_merge" option, shouldn't we
need to clear "MERGE_CHECKPOINT" again?
This is actually what I intended, but I was wrong. Actually, I found this.

When we remount the filesystem, the previous mount option is passed
through the "data" argument in the below.
f2fs_remount(struct super_block *sb, int *flags, char *data)

If we don't provide the "nocheckpoint_merge" option, how can we turn
off the "checkpoint_merge" option which is turned on in the previous
mount?
