This patch revists retrial paths in f2fs.
The basic idea is to use cond_resched instead of retrying from the very early
stage.

(kthread+0xa0/0xac) from [<c0105ef8>] (ret_from_fork+0x14/0x3c)
The reason is that f2fs calls radix_tree_insert under enabled preemption.
So, before calling it, we need to call radix_tree_preload.
Otherwise, we should use _GFP_WAIT for the radix tree, and use mutex or
semaphore to cover the radix tree operations.

Previoulsy, we used rwlock for nat_entry lock.
But, now we have a lot of complex operations in set_node_addr.
(e.g., allocating kernel memories, handling radix_trees, and so on)
So, this patches tries to change spinlock to rw_semaphore to give CPUs to other
threads.

It's meaningless to check dirty_nat_cnt after re-dirtying nat entries in

is zero, it's also meaningless to check __has_cursum_space.

Now in f2fs, we have three inode cache: ORPHAN_INO, APPEND_INO, UPDATE_INO,
and we manage fields related to inode cache separately in struct f2fs_sb_info
for each inode cache type.
This makes codes a bit messy, so that this patch intorduce a new struct
inode_management to wrap inner fields as following which make codes more neat.
/* for inner inode cache management */
struct inode_management {
struct radix_tree_root ino_root; /* ino entry array */
spinlock_t ino_lock; /* for ino entry lock */
struct list_head ino_list; /* inode list head */
unsigned long ino_num; /* number of entries */
};
struct f2fs_sb_info {
...
struct inode_management im[MAX_INO_ENTRY]; /* manage inode cache */
...
}

Previously, f2fs tries to reorganize the dirty nat entries into multiple sets
according to its nid ranges. This can improve the flushing nat pages, however,
if there are a lot of cached nat entries, it becomes a bottleneck.
This patch introduces a new set management flow by removing dirty nat list and
adding a series of set operations when the nat entry becomes dirty.

This patch revisited whole the recovery information during the f2fs_sync_file.
In this patch, there are three information to make a decision.
a) IS_CHECKPOINTED, /* is it checkpointed before? */
b) HAS_FSYNCED_INODE, /* is the inode fsynced before? */
c) HAS_LAST_FSYNC, /* has the latest node fsync mark? */
And, the scenarios for our rule are based on:
[Term] F: fsync_mark, D: dentry_mark
1. inode(x) | CP | inode(x) | dnode(F)
2. inode(x) | CP | inode(F) | dnode(F)
3. inode(x) | CP | dnode(F) | inode(x) | inode(F)
4. inode(x) | CP | dnode(F) | inode(F)
5. CP | inode(x) | dnode(F) | inode(DF)
6. CP | inode(DF) | dnode(F)
7. CP | dnode(F) | inode(DF)
8. CP | dnode(F) | inode(x) | inode(DF)
For example, #3, the three conditions should be changed as follows.
inode(x) | CP | dnode(F) | inode(x) | inode(F)
a) x o o o o
b) x x x x o
c) x o o x o
If f2fs_sync_file stops ------^,
it should write inode(F) --------------^
So, the need_inode_block_update should return true, since
c) get_nat_flag(e, HAS_LAST_FSYNC), is false.
For example, #8,
CP | alloc | dnode(F) | inode(x) | inode(DF)
a) o x x x x
b) x x x o
c) o o x o
If f2fs_sync_file stops -------^,
it should write inode(DF) --------------^
Note that, the roll-forward policy should follow this rule, which means,
if there are any missing blocks, we doesn't need to recover that inode.

In commit aec71382c6 ("f2fs: refactor flush_nat_entries codes for reducing NAT
writes"), we descripte the issue as below:
"Although building NAT journal in cursum reduce the read/write work for NAT
block, but previous design leave us lower performance when write checkpoint
frequently for these cases:
1. if journal in cursum has already full, it's a bit of waste that we flush all
nat entries to page for persistence, but not to cache any entries.
2. if journal in cursum is not full, we fill nat entries to journal util
journal is full, then flush the left dirty entries to disk without merge
journaled entries, so these journaled entries may be flushed to disk at next
checkpoint but lost chance to flushed last time."
Actually, we have the same problem in using SIT journal area.
In this patch, firstly we will update sit journal with dirty entries as many as
possible. Secondly if there is no space in sit journal, we will remove all
entries in journal and walk through the whole dirty entry bitmap of sit,
accounting dirty sit entries located in same SIT block to sit entry set. All
entry sets are linked to list sit_entry_set in sm_info, sorted ascending order
by count of entries in set. Later we flush entries in set which have fewest
entries into journal as many as we can, and then flush dense set with merged
entries to disk.
In this way we can use sit journal area more effectively, also we will reduce
SIT update, result in gaining in performance and saving lifetime of flash
device.
In my testing environment, it shows this patch can help to reduce SIT block
update obviously.

Theoretically, our total inodes number is the same as total node number, but
there are three node ids are reserved in f2fs, they are 0, 1 (node nid), and 2
(meta nid), and they should never be used by user, so our total/free inode
number calculated in ->statfs is wrong.
This patch indroduces F2FS_RESERVED_NODE_NUM and then fixes this issue by
recalculating total/free inode number with the macro.

I think we need to let the dirty node pages remain in the page cache instead
of rewriting them in their places.
So, after done with successful recovery, write_checkpoint will flush all of them
through the normal write path.
Through this, we can avoid potential error cases in terms of block allocation.

There are two rules when EIO is occurred.
1. don't write any checkpoint data to preserve the previous checkpoint
2. don't lose the cached dentry/node/meta pages
So, at first, this patch adds set_page_dirty in f2fs_write_end_io's failure.
Then, writing checkpoint/dentry/node blocks is not allowed.
Note that, for the data pages, we can't just throw away by redirtying them.
Otherwise, kworker can fall into infinite loop to flush them.
