Bug ID: 1173546
           Summary: Provide some way to circumvent "Disabling f2fs" though
                    it's unsupported
    Classification: openSUSE
           Product: openSUSE Tumbleweed

In the discussions about this as the thread linked below it was mentioned that
enabling f2fs would be one line commentary away. But after removing the
commentary I found out I have no  kernel module able to mount f2fs.
https://lists.opensuse.org/opensuse-kernel/2018-10/msg00001.html
It's worth mentioning f2fs is currently actively used - especially on mobile
platforms and other SoCs.
Is it possible to provide a better way to mount an f2fs disk, even though you
have dropped it's support, that doesn't involve recompiling the whole kernel
every once in a while?
