SMACK_MAGIC moved to a proper place for easy user space access
(i.e. libsmack).

Pull new F2FS filesystem from Jaegeuk Kim:
"Introduce a new file system, Flash-Friendly File System (F2FS), to
Linux 3.8.
Highlights:
- Add initial f2fs source codes
- Fix an endian conversion bug
- Fix build failures on random configs
- Fix the power-off-recovery routine
- Minor cleanup, coding style, and typos patches"
From the Kconfig help text:
F2FS is based on Log-structured File System (LFS), which supports
versatile "flash-friendly" features. The design has been focused on
addressing the fundamental issues in LFS, which are snowball effect
of wandering tree and high cleaning overhead.
Since flash-based storages show different characteristics according to
the internal geometry or flash memory management schemes aka FTL, F2FS
and tools support various parameters not only for configuring on-disk
layout, but also for selecting allocation and cleaning algorithms.
and there's an article by Neil Brown about it on lwn.net:

This adds the following major in-memory structures in f2fs.
- f2fs_sb_info:
contains f2fs-specific information, two special inode pointers for node and
meta address spaces, and orphan inode management.
- f2fs_inode_info:
contains vfs_inode and other fs-specific information.
- f2fs_nm_info:
contains node manager information such as NAT entry cache, free nid list,
and NAT page management.
- f2fs_node_info:
represents a node as node id, inode number, block address, and its version.
- f2fs_sm_info:
contains segment manager information such as SIT entry cache, free segment
map, current active logs, dirty segment management, and segment utilization.
The specific structures are sit_info, free_segmap_info, dirty_seglist_info,
curseg_info.
In addition, add F2FS_SUPER_MAGIC in magic.h.

Using pstore's superblock magic number is no doubt going to cause
problems in the future. Give efivarfs its own magic number.
