f2fs-tools fails to cross build from source, because its upstream build
system wrongly uses AC_CHECK_FILE. The purpose of the macro is checking
for files on the host system. However here it is used to check whether a
.git directory exists, which is a property of the build place. A simple
"test -d" should be used here. After doing so, f2fs-tools cross builds
successfully. Please consider applying the attached patch.
