In curseg cache, f2fs caches two different parts:
- datas of current summay block, i.e. summary entries, footer info.
- journal info, i.e. sparse nat/sit entries or io stat info.
With this approach, 1) it may cause higher lock contention when we access
or update both of the parts of cache since we use the same mutex lock
curseg_mutex to protect the cache. 2) current summary block with last
journal info will be writebacked into device as a normal summary block
when flushing, however, we treat journal info as valid one only in current
summary, so most normal summary blocks contain junk journal data, it wastes
remaining space of summary block.
So, in order to fix above issues, we split curseg cache into two parts:
a) current summary block, protected by original mutex lock curseg_mutex
b) journal cache, protected by newly introduced r/w semaphore journal_rwsem
When loading curseg cache during ->mount, we store summary info and
journal info into different caches; When doing checkpoint, we combine
datas of two cache into current summary block for persisting.

f2fs use single bio buffer per type data (META/NODE/DATA) for caching
writes locating in continuous block address as many as possible, after
submitting, these writes may be still cached in bio buffer, so we have
to flush cached writes in bio buffer by calling f2fs_submit_merged_bio.
Unfortunately, in the scenario of high concurrency, bio buffer could be
flushed by someone else before we submit it as below reasons:
a) there is no space in bio buffer.
b) add a request of different type (SYNC, ASYNC).
c) add a discontinuous block address.
For this condition, f2fs_submit_merged_bio will be devastating, because
it could break the following merging of writes in bio buffer, split one
big bio into two smaller one.
This patch introduces f2fs_submit_merged_bio_cond which can do a
conditional submitting with bio buffer, before submitting it will judge
whether:
- page in DATA type bio buffer is matching with specified page;
- page in DATA type bio buffer is belong to specified inode;
- page in NODE type bio buffer is belong to specified inode;
If there is no eligible page in bio buffer, we will skip submitting step,
result in gaining more chance to merge consecutive block IOs in bio cache.
