f2fs: fix to clear FI_VOLATILE_FILE correctly
Thread A Thread B
- f2fs_release_file
- clear_inode_flag(FI_VOLATILE_FILE)
- wb_writeback
- writeback_sb_inodes
- __writeback_single_inode
- do_writepages
- f2fs_write_data_pages
- __write_data_page
all volatile file's pages
are writebacked to storage
- set_inode_flag(FI_DROP_CACHE)
- filemap_fdatawrite
There is a hole that mm can flush all dirty pages of volatile file as
inode is not tagged with both FI_VOLATILE_FILE and FI_DROP_CACHE flags,
we should never writeback the page #0 and also it's unneeded to writeback
other pages.
This patch adjusts to relocate clear_inode_flag(FI_VOLATILE_FILE), so that
FI_VOLATILE_FILE flag can be remained before all dirty pages were dropped
to avoid issue.
