The vfs has long had a write lifetime hint mechanism that gives the
expected longevity on storage of the data being written. f2fs was the
original consumer of this and used the hint for flash data placement
(mostly to avoid write amplification by placing objects with similar
lifetimes in the same erase block). More recently the SCSI based UFS
(Universal Flash Storage) drivers have wanted to take advantage of
this as well, for the same reasons as f2fs, necessitating plumbing the
write hints through the block layer and then adding it to the SCSI
core. The vfs write_hints pull you've already taken plumbs this as
far as block and this pull request completes the SCSI core enabling
based on a recently agreed reuse of the old write command group
number. The additions to the scsi_debug driver are for emulating this
property so we can run tests on it in the absence of an actual UFS
device.
