sd card file system on android

[Efraim Flashner]

I've heard that some Samsung phones are running F2FS to increase
performance/decrease NAND wear.  To me it seems likely that if they're
enabling that then they wouldn't be squeamish about enabling ext2/3/4.

I think the sd card I used in my htc one v was ext4 formatted, but I
don't remember now.  I can check later, depending on how chag
preperations go this evening.
