This patch improves the gc efficiency by optimizing the victim
selection policy. With this optimization, the random re-write
performance could increase up to 20%.

For f2fs, when disk is in shortage of free spaces, gc will selects
dirty segments and moves valid blocks around for making more space
available. The gc cost of a segment is determined by the valid blocks
in the segment. The less the valid blocks, the higher the efficiency.
The ideal victim segment is the one that has the most garbage blocks.

Currently, it searches up to 20 dirty segments for a victim segment.
The selected victim is not likely the best victim for gc when there
are much more dirty segments. Why not searching more dirty segments
for a better victim? The cost of searching dirty segments is
negligible in comparison to moving blocks.

In this patch, it enlarges the MAX_VICTIM_SEARCH to 4096 to make
the search more aggressively for a possible better victim. Since
it also applies to victim selection for SSR, it will likely improve
the SSR efficiency as well.

The test case is simple. It creates as many files until the disk full.
The size for each file is 32KB. Then it writes as many as 100000
records of 4KB size to random offsets of random files in sync mode.
The testing was done on a 2GB partition of a SDHC card. Let's see the
test result of f2fs without and with the patch.

---------------------------------------
2GB partition, SDHC
create 52023 files of size 32768 bytes
random re-write 100000 records of 4KB
---------------------------------------
| file creation (s) | rewrite time (s) | gc count | gc garbage blocks |
[no patch]  341         4227             1174          174840
[patched]   324         2958             645           106682

It's obvious that, with the patch, f2fs finishes the test in 20+% less
time than without the patch. And internally it does much less gc with
higher efficiency than before.

Since the performance improvement is related to gc, it might not be so
obvious for other tests that do not trigger gc as often as this one (
This is because f2fs selects dirty segments for SSR use most of the
time when free space is in shortage). The well-known iozone test tool
was not used for benchmarking the patch becuase it seems do not have
a test case that performs random re-write on a full disk.

This patch is the revised version based on the suggestion from
Jaegeuk Kim.

Previously, we experience bio traces as follows when running simple sequential
write test.

 f2fs_do_submit_bio: type = NODE, io = no sync, sector = 500104928, size = 4K
 f2fs_do_submit_bio: type = NODE, io = no sync, sector = 499922208, size = 368K
 f2fs_do_submit_bio: type = NODE, io = no sync, sector = 499914752, size = 140K

 -> total 512K

The first one is to write an indirect node block, and the others are to write
direct node blocks.

The reason why there are two separate bios for direct node blocks is:
0. initial state
------------------    ------------------
|                |    |xxxxxxxx        |
------------------    ------------------

1. write 368K
------------------    ------------------
|                |    |xxxxxxxxWWWWWWWW|
------------------    ------------------

2. write 140K
------------------    ------------------
|WWWWWWW         |    |xxxxxxxxWWWWWWWW|
------------------    ------------------

This is because f2fs_write_node_pages tries to write just 512K totally, so that
we can lose the chance to merge more bios nicely.

After this patch is applied, we can get the following bio traces.

  f2fs_do_submit_bio: type = NODE, io = no sync, sector = 500103168, size = 8K
  f2fs_do_submit_bio: type = NODE, io = no sync, sector = 500111368, size = 4K
  f2fs_do_submit_bio: type = NODE, io = no sync, sector = 500107272, size = 512K
  f2fs_do_submit_bio: type = NODE, io = no sync, sector = 500108296, size = 512K
  f2fs_do_submit_bio: type = NODE, io = no sync, sector = 500109320, size = 500K

And finally, we can improve the sequential write performance,
    from 458.775 MB/s to 479.945 MB/s on SSD.

This patch removes a false-alaramed BUG_ON.
The previous BUG_ON condition didn't cover the following true scenario.

In f2fs_add_link, 1) get_new_data_page gives an uptodate page successfully,
and then, 2) init_inode_metadata returns -ENOSPC.
At this moment, a new clean data page is remained in the page cache, but its
block address still indicates NEW_ADDR.
After then, even if sync is called, this clean data page cannot be written to
the disk due to the clean state.

So this means that get_lock_data_page should make a new empty page when its
block address is NEW_ADDR and its page is not uptodated.

In f2fs_write_inode, updating inode after f2fs_balance_fs is not
a optimized way in the case that f2fs_gc is performed ahead. The
inode page will be unnecessarily written out twice, one of which
is in f2fs_gc->...->sync_node_pages and the other is in
update_inode_page.

Let's update the inode page in prior to f2fs_balance_fs to avoid
this.

f2fs_setxattr                                   0                 0

At this moment, the checkpoint stores inconsistent data where the inode has
i_xattr_nid but actual xattr node block is not allocated yet.

So, we should assign the real i_xattr_nid only after its xattr node block is
allocated.

Previously xattr node blocks are stored to the COLD_NODE log, which means that
our roll-forward mechanism doesn't recover the xattr node blocks at all.
Only the direct node blocks in the WARM_NODE log can be recovered.

So, let's resolve the issue simply by conducting checkpoint during fsync when a
file has a modified xattr node block.

This approach is able to degrade the performance, but normally the checkpoint
overhead is shown at the initial fsync call after the xattr entry changes.
Once the checkpoint is done, no additional overhead would be occurred.

This patch fixes a deadlock bug that occurs quite often when there are
concurrent write and fsync on a same file.

Following is the simplified call trace when tasks get hung.

fsync thread:
- f2fs_sync_file
 ...
 - f2fs_write_data_pages
 ...
  - update_extent_cache
  ...
   - update_inode
    - wait_on_page_writeback

bdi writeback thread
- __writeback_single_inode
 - f2fs_write_data_pages
  - mutex_lock(sbi->writepages)

The deadlock happens when the fsync thread waits on a inode page that has
been added to the f2fs' cached bio sbi->bio[NODE], and unfortunately,
no one else could be able to submit the cached bio to block layer for
writeback. This is because the fsync thread already hold a sbi->fs_lock and
the sbi->writepages lock, causing the bdi thread being blocked when attempt
to write data pages for the same inode. At the same time, f2fs_gc thread
does not notice the situation and could not help. Even the sync syscall
gets blocked.

To fix it, we could submit the cached bio first before waiting on a inode page
that is being written back.
