f2fs: compress: fix potential deadlock
generic/269 reports a hangtask issue, the root cause is ABBA deadlock described as below: Thread A Thread B - down_write(&sbi->gc_lock) -- A - f2fs_write_data_pages - lock all pages in cluster -- B - f2fs_write_multi_pages - f2fs_write_raw_pages - f2fs_write_single_data_page - f2fs_balance_fs - down_write(&sbi->gc_lock) -- A - f2fs_gc - do_garbage_collect - ra_data_block - pagecache_get_page -- B To fix this, it needs to avoid calling f2fs_balance_fs() if there is still cluster pages been locked in context of cluster writeback, so instead, let's call f2fs_balance_fs() in the end of f2fs_write_raw_pages() when all cluster pages were unlocked.
