When we rename a dir to new name which is not exist previous,
we will set pino of parent inode with ino of child inode in f2fs_set_link.
It destroy consistency of pino, it should be fixed.

Previously, there was a erroneous scenario like below.
thread 1: thread 2:
f2fs_unlink
- acquire_orphan_inode
: sbi->n_orphans++ write_checkpoint
- block_operations
: f2fs_lock_all
- do_checkpoint
: write orphan blocks with sbi->n_orphans
- unblock_operations
- f2fs_lock_op
- release_orphan_inode
- f2fs_unlock_op
During the checkpoint by thread 2, f2fs stores a wrong orphan block according
to the wrong sbi->n_orphans.
To avoid this, simply we should make cover acquire_orphan_inode too with
f2fs_lock_op.

The fs_locks is used to block other ops(ex, recovery) when doing checkpoint.
And each other operate routine(besides checkpoint) needs to acquire a fs_lock,
there is a terrible problem here, if these are too many concurrency threads acquiring
fs_lock, so that they will block each other and may lead to some performance problem,
but this is not the phenomenon we want to see.
Though there are some optimization patches introduced to enhance the usage of fs_lock,
but the thorough solution is using a *rw_sem* to replace the fs_lock.
Checkpoint routine takes write_sem, and other ops take read_sem, so that we can block
other ops(ex, recovery) when doing checkpoint, and other ops will not disturb each other,
this can avoid the problem described above completely.
Because of the weakness of rw_sem, the above change may introduce a potential problem
that the checkpoint thread might get starved if other threads are intensively locking
the read semaphore for I/O.(Pointed out by Xu Jin)
In order to avoid this, a wait_list is introduced, the appending read semaphore ops
will be dropped into the wait_list if checkpoint thread is waiting for write semaphore,
and will be waked up when checkpoint thread gives up write semaphore.
Thanks to Kim's previous review and test, and will be very glad to see other guys'
performance tests about this patch.
V2:
-fix the potential starvation problem.
-use more suitable func name suggested by Xu Jin.

This patch fixes mishandling of the sbi->n_orphans variable.
If users request lots of f2fs_unlink(), check_orphan_space() could be contended.
In such the case, sbi->n_orphans can be read incorrectly so that f2fs_unlink()
would fall into the wrong state which results in the failure of
add_orphan_inode().
So, let's increment sbi->n_orphans virtually prior to the actual orphan inode
stuffs. After that, let's release sbi->n_orphans by calling release_orphan_inode
or remove_orphan_inode.

The error is reproducible by:
0. mkfs.f2fs /dev/sdb1 & mount
1. touch test1
2. touch test2
3. mv test1 test2
4. umount
5. dumpt.f2fs -i 4 /dev/sdb1
After this, when we retrieve the inode->i_name of test2 by dump.f2fs, we get
test1 instead of test2.
This is because f2fs didn't update the file name during the f2fs_rename.
So, this patch fixes that.

If a file is linked, f2fs loose its parent inode number so that fsync calls
for the linked file should do checkpoint all the time.
But, if we can recover its parent inode number after the checkpoint, we can
adjust roll-forward mechanism for the further fsync calls, which is able to
improve the fsync performance significatly.

Basically an inode manages the number of allocated blocks with inode->i_blocks
which is represented in a unit of sectors, not file system blocks.
But, f2fs has used i_blocks in a unit of file system blocks, and f2fs_getattr
translates it to the number of sectors when fstat is called.
However, previously f2fs_file_inode_operations only has this, so this patch adds
it to all the types of inode_operations.

If a file is linked with other files, it should be checkpointed at every fsync
calls.
For this, we use set_cp_file() with FADVISE_CP_BIT, but previously we didn't
cover the flag by the global lock.
This patch fixes that the inode page stores this correctly.

In the previous version, f2fs uses global locks according to the usage types,
such as directory operations, block allocation, block write, and so on.
Reference the following lock types in f2fs.h.
enum lock_type {
RENAME, /* for renaming operations */
DENTRY_OPS, /* for directory operations */
DATA_WRITE, /* for data write */
DATA_NEW, /* for data allocation */
DATA_TRUNC, /* for data truncate */
NODE_NEW, /* for node allocation */
NODE_TRUNC, /* for node truncate */
NODE_WRITE, /* for node write */
NR_LOCK_TYPE,
};
In that case, we lose the performance under the multi-threading environment,
since every types of operations must be conducted one at a time.
In order to address the problem, let's share the locks globally with a mutex
array regardless of any types.
So, let users grab a mutex and perform their jobs in parallel as much as
possbile.
For this, I propose a new global lock scheme as follows.
0. Data structure
- f2fs_sb_info -> mutex_lock[NR_GLOBAL_LOCKS]
- f2fs_sb_info -> node_write
1. mutex_lock_op(sbi)
- try to get an avaiable lock from the array.
- returns the index of the gottern lock variable.
2. mutex_unlock_op(sbi, index of the lock)
- unlock the given index of the lock.
3. mutex_lock_all(sbi)
- grab all the locks in the array before the checkpoint.
4. mutex_unlock_all(sbi)
- release all the locks in the array after checkpoint.
5. block_operations()
- call mutex_lock_all()
- sync_dirty_dir_inodes()
- grab node_write
- sync_node_pages()
Note that,
the pairs of mutex_lock_op()/mutex_unlock_op() and
mutex_lock_all()/mutex_unlock_all() should be used together.

When we recover fsync'ed data after power-off-recovery, we should guarantee
that any parent inode number should be correct for each direct inode blocks.
So, let's make the following rules.
- The fsync should do checkpoint to all the inodes that were experienced hard
links.
- So, the only normal files can be recovered by roll-forward.

In order to conserve free sections to deal with the worst-case scenarios, f2fs
should be able to freeze all the directory operations especially when there are
not enough free sections. The f2fs_balance_fs() is for this use.
When FS utilization becomes almost 100%, directory operations can be failed due
to -ENOSPC frequently, which produces some dirty node pages occasionally.
Previously, in such a case, f2fs_balance_fs() is not able to be triggered since
it is triggered only if the directory operation ends up with success.
So, this patch triggers f2fs_balance_fs() at first before handling directory
operations.
