[PATCH] f2fs: allow compression of files without blocks

[PATCH] f2fs: allow compression of files without blocks

[Chao Liu]

From: Chao Liu <liuchao@coolpad.com>

Files created by truncate have a size but no blocks, so
they can be allowed to enable compression.

I didn't get it, how can we create file by truncation...

Thanks,

I'm sorry I didn't make it clear. We can create a file
by passing a FILE parameter that does not exist
to the user command truncate(1) [1].

How about using truncate(1) instead of truncate
in the description of the change?

Thanks,

Fine to me, as f2fs_disable_compressed_file() uses the same check
condition. ;)
