used for gc timing by user.

There are many different scenarios such as fstrim, umount, urgent or
background where we will issue discards, actually, they need use
different policy in aspect of io aware, discard granularity, delay
interval and so on. But now they just share one common discard policy,
so there will be race when changing policy in between these scenarios,
the interference of changing discard policy will be very serious.
This patch changes to split discard policy for different scenarios.

It's time to issue all the discard commands, if user sets the idle time.

Commit d618ebaf0a ("f2fs: enable small discard by default") enables
f2fs to issue 4K size discard in real-time discard mode. However, issuing
smaller discard may cost more lifetime but releasing less free space in
flash device. Since f2fs has ability of separating hot/cold data and
garbage collection, we can expect that small-sized invalid region would
expand soon with OPU, deletion or garbage collection on valid datas, so
it's better to delay or skip issuing smaller size discards, it could help
to reduce overmuch consumption of IO bandwidth and lifetime of flash
storage.
This patch makes f2fs selectng 64K size as its default minimal
granularity, and issue discard with the size which is not smaller than
minimal granularity. Also it exposes discard granularity as sysfs entry
for configuration in different scenario.
Jaegeuk Kim:
We must issue all the accumulated discard commands when fstrim is called.
So, I've added pend_list_tag[] to indicate whether we should issue the
commands or not. If tag sets P_ACTIVE or P_TRIM, we have to issue them.
P_TRIM is set once at a time, given fstrim trigger.
In addition, issue_discard_thread is calling too much due to the number of
discard commands remaining in the pending list. I added a timer to control
it likewise gc_thread.

This patch adds a sysfs entry to control urgent mode for background GC.
If this is set, background GC thread conducts GC with gc_urgent_sleep_time
all the time.

In this patch, we add a new sysfs interface, with it, we can control
number of reserved blocks in system which could not be used by user,
it enable f2fs to let user to configure for adjusting over-provision
ratio dynamically instead of changing it by mkfs.
So we can expect it will help to reserve more free space for relieving
GC in both filesystem and flash device.

Codes related to sysfs and procfs are dispersive and mixed with sb
related codes, but actually these codes are independent from others,
so split them from super.c, and reorgnize and manger them in sysfs.c.
