f2fs: change reclaim rate in percentage
It is more reasonable to determine the reclaiming rate of prefree segments according to the volume size, which is set to 5% by default. For example, if the volume is 128GB, the prefree segments are reclaimed when the number reaches to 6.4GB. Signed-off-by: Jaegeuk Kim <jaegeuk.kim@samsung.com>

reclaim_segments This parameter controls the number of prefree
segments to be reclaimed. If the number of prefree
- segments is larger than this number, f2fs tries to
- conduct checkpoint to reclaim the prefree segments
- to free segments. By default, 100 segments, 200MB.
+ segments is larger than the number of segments
+ in the proportion to the percentage over total

max_small_discards This parameter controls the number of discard
commands that consist small blocks less than 2MB.
