One case is after we update kernel image, f2fs module may no longer support
compress algorithm which current file was compressed with, to avoid triggering
IO with empty compress engine (struct f2fs_compress_ops pointer):
It needs to add f2fs_is_compress_backend_ready() check condition here?
Thanks,

In that case it wouldn't have been possible to open the file, because
f2fs_file_open() checks for it. So it's not necessary to repeat the same check
in every operation on the file descriptor.
Oh, yes, it's safe now.
I'm thinking we need to remove the check in f2fs_file_open(), because the check
will fail metadata access/update (via f{g,s}etxattr/ioctl), however original
intention of that check is only to avoid syscalls to touch compressed data w/o
the engine, anyway this is another topic.
The whole patchset looks fine to me, feel free to add:
