Chao Yu cf4a9e1bc8 f2fs: fix to avoid UAF in f2fs_write_end_io() 
[ Upstream commit ce2739e482 ]

As syzbot reported an use-after-free issue in f2fs_write_end_io().

It is caused by below race condition:

loop device				umount
- worker_thread
 - loop_process_work
  - do_req_filebacked
   - lo_rw_aio
    - lo_rw_aio_complete
     - blk_mq_end_request
      - blk_update_request
       - f2fs_write_end_io
        - dec_page_count
        - folio_end_writeback
					- kill_f2fs_super
					 - kill_block_super
					  - f2fs_put_super
					 : free(sbi)
       : get_pages(, F2FS_WB_CP_DATA)
         accessed sbi which is freed

In kill_f2fs_super(), we will drop all page caches of f2fs inodes before
call free(sbi), it guarantee that all folios should end its writeback, so
it should be safe to access sbi before last folio_end_writeback().

Let's relocate ckpt thread wakeup flow before folio_end_writeback() to
resolve this issue.

README 

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
