I think you patch is not conflict to both latest linux's tree and f2fs dev tree.
but conflict to this patch 
"f2fs: introduce f2fs_write_failed to handle error case when write" which
maybe in Jaegeuk's local tree, not update to f2fs dev tree.

If possible, you could wait for Jaegeuk to update f2fs tree, or merge this patch,
then apply your new patch.

Thanks,
Yu
