Linus Torvalds 42612e7763 f2fs-for-5.8-rc1
In this round, we've added some knobs to enhance compression feature and harden
 testing environment. In addition, we've fixed several bugs reported from Android
 devices such as long discarding latency, device hanging during quota_sync, etc.
 
 Enhancement:
 - support lzo-rle algorithm
 - add two ioctls to release and reserve blocks for compression
 - support partial truncation/fiemap on compressed file
 - introduce sysfs entries to attach IO flags explicitly
 - add iostat trace point along with read io stat
 
 Bug fix:
 - fix long discard latency
 - flush quota data by f2fs_quota_sync correctly
 - fix to recover parent inode number for power-cut recovery
 - fix lz4/zstd output buffer budget
 - parse checkpoint mount option correctly
 - avoid inifinite loop to wait for flushing node/meta pages
 - manage discard space correctly
 
 And some refactoring and clean up patches were added.

README

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

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

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.
