[PATCH] f2fs: invalidate temporary meta page

From: Chao Yu
Date: Tue Jul 28 2015 - 06:37:26 EST


To avoid meeting garbage data in next free node block at the end of warm
node chain when doing recovery, we will try to zero out that invalid block.

If the device is not support discard, our way for zeroing out block is:
grabbing a temporary zeroed page in meta inode, then, issue write request
with this page.

But, we forget to release that temporary page, so our memory usage will
increase without gaining any hit ratio benefit, so it's better to free it
for saving memory.
