Good catch!

Original intention here is to recover status to the timing before
committing atomic write. As at that timing blkaddr in dnode should be
cur->old_addr(NEW_ADDR), so we need to change to call:
f2fs_update_data_blkaddr(&dn, NEW_ADDR);
Otherwise, metadata will become inconsistent, because blkaddr value is
NULL_ADDR means that current block is not preallocated, but
total_valid_block_count has already been updated. Right?
Thanks,
