I try to enable erofs to Android which will start at linux-4.19.

erofs has been successfully used by several HUAWEI mobile phones from low-end to high-end,
which squashfs cannot since we fails to use it even on highest phone HUAWEI Mate 9 since it has poor performance.

Add a word, is any staging driver no use to be backported?
