The atomic writes feature requires dedicated HW support, like

This is not correct. Log-structured filesystems can implement atomic
writes without support for atomic writes in the block device(s) used
by the filesystem. See also the F2FS_IOC_*_ATOMIC_WRITE ioctls. This
being said, I hope that atomic write support will be added in the
block layer and also that a single interface will be supported by all
filesystems.

Thanks,
