f2fs: use crc and cp version to determine roll-forward recovery
Previously, we used cp_version only to detect recoverable dnodes. In order to avoid same garbage cp_version, we needed to truncate the next dnode during checkpoint, resulting in additional discard or data write. If we can distinguish this by using crc in addition to cp_version, we can remove this overhead. There is backward compatibility concern where it changes node_footer layout. So, this patch introduces a new checkpoint flag, CP_CRC_RECOVERY_FLAG, to detect new layout. New layout will be activated only when this flag is set. Signed-off-by: Jaegeuk Kim <jaegeuk@kernel.org>
