This patch removes setting SBI_NEED_FSCK when GC gets an error on f2fs_iget,
since f2fs_iget can give ENOMEM and others by race condition.
If we set this critical fsck flag, we'll get EIO during fsync via the below
code path.

In f2fs_inplace_write_data(),

if (is_sbi_flag_set(sbi, SBI_NEED_FSCK) || f2fs_cp_error(sbi)) {
err = -EIO;
goto drop_bio;
}

Fixes: 9557727876674 ("f2fs: drop inplace IO if fs status is abnormal")
