Subject: f2fs: avoid frequent background GC
X-Git-Url: https://git.karo-electronics.de/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=6cb968d9b0358c7e807416a85699a526e820083c;p=linux-beck.git

f2fs: avoid frequent background GC

If there is no victim segments selected by background GC, let's wait
a little bit longer time to collect dirty segments.
By default, let's give 5 minutes.
