I don't think all fragmented files are cold, e.g. db file.

We have separated interface (via f2fs_xattr_advise_handler, e.g. setfattr -n
"system.advise" -v value) to indicate this file is a hot/cold file, so my
suggestion is after file defragmentation, if you think this file is cold, and
use setxattr() to set it as cold.

Thanks,
