    f2fs: avoid writing inode redundantly when creating a file · 92c4342f
    Jin Xu 提交于
    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)
