[PATCH 1/4] f2fs: fix to cover sentry_lock for block allocation

From: Jaegeuk Kim
Date: Tue Mar 17 2015 - 12:57:52 EST


In the following call stack, f2fs changes the bitmap for dirty segments and # of
dirty sentries without grabbing sit_i->sentry_lock.
This can result in mismatch on bitmap and # of dirty sentries, since if there
are some direct_io operations.

In allocate_data_block,
- __allocate_new_segments
- mutex_lock(&curseg->curseg_mutex);
- s_ops->allocate_segment
- new_curseg/change_curseg
- reset_curseg
- __set_sit_entry_type
- __mark_sit_entry_dirty
- set_bit(dirty_sentries_bitmap)
- dirty_sentries++;
