f2fs: avoid writing inode redundantly when creating a file
In f2fs_write_inode, updating inode after f2fs_balance_fs is not a optimized way in the case that f2fs_gc is performed ahead. The inode page will be unnecessarily written out twice, one of which is in f2fs_gc->...->sync_node_pages and the other is in update_inode_page. Let's update the inode page in prior to f2fs_balance_fs to avoid this. To reproduce it, $ touch file (before this step, should make the device need f2fs_gc) $ sync (or wait the bdi to write dirty inode) Signed-off-by: Jin Xu <jinuxstyle@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Jaegeuk Kim <jaegeuk.kim@samsung.com>
