f2fs: block cache/dio write during f2fs_enable_checkpoint()

Browse source

If there are too many background IOs during f2fs_enable_checkpoint(),
sync_inodes_sb() may be blocked for long time due to it will loop to
write dirty datas which are generated by in parallel write()
continuously.

Let's change as below to resolve this issue:
- hold cp_enable_rwsem write lock to block any cache/dio write
- decrease DEF_ENABLE_INTERVAL from 16 to 5

In addition, dump more logs during f2fs_enable_checkpoint().

Testcase:
1. fill data into filesystem until 90% usage.
2. mount -o remount,checkpoint=disable:10% /data
3. fio --rw=randwrite  --bs=4kb  --size=1GB  --numjobs=10  \
--iodepth=64  --ioengine=psync  --time_based  --runtime=600 \
--directory=/data/fio_dir/ &
4. mount -o remount,checkpoint=enable /data

Before:
F2FS-fs (dm-51): f2fs_enable_checkpoint() finishes, writeback:7232, sync:39793, cp:457

After:
F2FS-fs (dm-51): f2fs_enable_checkpoint end, writeback:5032, lock:0, sync_inode:5552, sync_fs:84
