/* f2fs */

As mentioned above, this kernel fully supports f2fs.
You can selectively convert partitions to f2fs using PhilZ Touch recovery provided in the downloads.
Don't expect TWRP to work with f2fs because its maintainer kindly ignored my requests to provide sources for TWRP.
You should use the provided PhilZ Touch recovery at all times after you switched to f2fs.

/* Switch to f2fs */

This step includes a full factory wipe!
Backup your data prior to switch!

You may use the provided recovery to back-up previous ext4 data to an external storage
and restore it to newly formatted f2fs storage.

1. Install normal ClockworkMod(or PhilZ) recovery
2. Put arter97 recovery on you SD card
3. Enter recovery
4. Flash recovery
5. Reboot recovery
6.1 Select "Mounts and Storage"
6.2. Select "toggle f2fs <-> ext4 migration"
6.3. Select "format /cache"
6.4. Select "f2fs"
6.5. Select "Yes - Format device"
7.1. Select "format /data and /data/media (/sdcard)"
7.2. Select "Yes - Format"
7.3. Select "f2fs"
7.4. Select "Yes - Format device"
8. Reboot

You can repeat the steps for /cache and /system. It's your choice.

Your warranty is now void.
I am not responsible for bricked devices, dead SD cards,
thermonuclear war, or you getting fired because the alarm app failed. Please
do some research if you have any concerns about features included in this kernel
before flashing it! YOU are choosing to make these modifications, and if
you point the finger at me for messing up your device, I will laugh at you. Hard. A lot.
