[ Upstream commit 0cac51185e65dc2a20686184e02f3cafc99eb202 ]
If lfs mode is on, buffered read may race w/ OPU dio write as below,
it may cause buffered read hits unwritten data unexpectly, and for
dio read, the race condition exists as well.

In LFS mode, if there is inflight dio, let's wait for its completion,
this policy won't cover all race cases, however it is a tradeoff which
avoids abusing lock around IO paths.
Fixes: f847c699cf ("f2fs: allow out-place-update for direct IO in LFS mode")

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
