> Per the LFS paper (http://www.cs.berkeley.edu/~brewer/cs262/LFS.pdf) we can
> write two checkpoints to avoid replaying the logs in the case we
> crash/shutdown while writing a checkpoint.
> Section 4:
> "In order to handle a crash during a checkpoint operation there are actually
> two checkpoint regions, and checkpoint operations alternate between them. The
> checkpoint time is in the last block of the checkpoint so if the checkpoint
> fails the time will not be updated. During reboot, the system reads both
> checkpoint regions and uses the one with the most recent time."
