f2fs: allow to change discard policy based on cached discard cmds
With the default DPOLICY_BG discard thread is ioaware, which prevents the discard thread from issuing the discard commands. On low RAM setups, it is observed that these discard commands in the cache are consuming high memory. This patch aims to relax the memory pressure on the system due to f2fs pending discard cmds by changing the policy to DPOLICY_FORCE based on the nm_i->ram_thresh configured.
