Chao Yu 39d787bec4 f2fs: enhance multiple device flush
When multiple device feature is enabled, during ->fsync we will issue
flush in all devices to make sure node/data of the file being persisted
into storage. But some flushes of device could be unneeded as file's
data may be not writebacked into those devices. So this patch adds and
manage bitmap per inode in global cache to indicate which device is
dirty and it needs to issue flush during ->fsync, hence, we could improve
performance of fsync in scenario of multiple device.

README

Linux kernel
============

This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst

Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users.
These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
