I do not know whether there are any Android apps that use the
F_SET_(FILE_|)RW_HINT fcntls.

The only use case in Android platform code I know of is this one: Daejun
Park, "f2fs-tools: add write hint support", f2fs-dev mailing list,
September 2024 
(https://lore.kernel.org/all/20240904011217epcms2p5a1b15db8e0ae50884429da7be4af4de4@epcms2p5/T/).
As you probably know f2fs-tools is a software package that includes
fsck.f2fs.

Jaegeuk, please correct me if necessary.

Bart.
