[PATCH v2] f2fs: shrink spinlock coverage

From: Chao Yu
Date: Wed May 06 2020 - 06:46:13 EST


In f2fs_try_to_free_nids(), .nid_list_lock spinlock critical region will
increase as expected shrink number increase, to avoid spining other CPUs
for long time, it's better to implement like extent cache and nats
shrinker.
