[PATCH] f2fs: read atomic replacements through the COW inode

[Hungyu Lin]

Starting an atomic replacement drops the page cache and resets i_size,
but keeps the original block mappings so the operation can be aborted.
After a sparse write extends the replacement, buffered reads still use
those original mappings for the skipped range and cache the old data.
Commit removes the old gap mappings, but the cached data remains visible
even after reopening the file. A subsequent partial write to the gap can
write those stale bytes back to disk.

Resolve buffered reads through the COW inode during atomic replacement,
so unwritten ranges are read as holes. Keep using the original inode for
the read bio and its encryption context. Once FI_ATOMIC_COMMITTED is set,
use the newly committed original mappings again.

Hold the mapping invalidate lock while committing or aborting the atomic
write to serialize these mapping transitions with buffered-read faults
and readahead.
