Sahitya Tummala 528611246f f2fs: allow to change discard policy based on cached discard cmds
With the default DPOLICY_BG discard thread is ioaware, which prevents
the discard thread from issuing the discard commands. On low RAM setups,
it is observed that these discard commands in the cache are consuming
high memory. This patch aims to relax the memory pressure on the system
due to f2fs pending discard cmds by changing the policy to DPOLICY_FORCE
based on the nm_i->ram_thresh configured.

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.
