f2fs: avoid issuing small bios due to several dirty node pages
If some small bios of dirty node pages are supposed to be issued during the
sequential data writes, there-in well-produced consecutive data bios are able
to be split by the small node bios, resulting in performance degradation.
So, let's collect a number of dirty node pages until reaching a threshold.
And, by default, I set the threshold as 2MB, a segment size.
This improves sequential write performance on i5, 512GB SSD (830 w/ SATA2) as
follows.
Before: 231 MB/s -> After: 255 MB/s
