Ok, will add the commit message.

it's a f2fs image with 25600MB
flash this image to device
the device will resize it according to the userdata partition size which is
about 94GB
the device mount the f2fs partition
then hit this f2fs_bug_on

seems that the cold flag is not been set when mkfs

I think the issue is that

1. the node page in the storage is without cold bit
2. f2fs_disable_checkpoint -> f2fs_gc -> f2fs_get_node_page, this page won't
be set cold flag
3. f2fs_move_node_page -> __write_node_page to write this page
4. f2fs_gc -> f2fs_iget -> do_read_inode to read this page and set cold flag
