Sheng Yong 2866fb16d6 f2fs: fix race between write_checkpoint and write_begin
The following race could lead to inconsistent SIT bitmap:

Task A                          Task B
======                          ======
f2fs_write_checkpoint
  block_operations
    f2fs_lock_all
      down_write(node_change)
      down_write(node_write)
      ... sync ...
      up_write(node_change)
                                f2fs_file_write_iter
                                  set_inode_flag(FI_NO_PREALLOC)
                                  ......
                                  f2fs_write_begin(index=0, has inline data)
                                    prepare_write_begin
                                      __do_map_lock(AIO) => down_read(node_change)
                                      f2fs_convert_inline_page => update SIT
                                      __do_map_lock(AIO) => up_read(node_change)
  f2fs_flush_sit_entries <= inconsistent SIT
  finish write checkpoint
  sudden-power-off

If SPO occurs after checkpoint is finished, SIT bitmap will be set
incorrectly.

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
