f2fs: reserve bits for fs-verity
Reserve an F2FS feature flag and inode flag for fs-verity. This is an
in-development feature that is planned be discussed at LSF/MM 2018 [1].
It will provide file-based integrity and authenticity for read-only
files. Most code will be in a filesystem-independent module, with
smaller changes needed to individual filesystems that opt-in to
supporting the feature. An early prototype supporting F2FS is available
[2]. Reserving the F2FS on-disk bits for fs-verity will prevent users
of the prototype from conflicting with other new F2FS features.
Note that we're reserving the inode flag in f2fs_inode.i_advise, which
isn't really appropriate since it's not a hint or advice. But
->i_advise is already being used to hold the 'encrypt' flag; and F2FS's
->i_flags uses the generic FS_* values, so it seems ->i_flags can't be
used for an F2FS-specific flag without additional work to remove the
assumption that ->i_flags uses the generic flags namespace.
