f2fs: fix potential data inconsistence of checkpoint


Previously, we changed lock from cp_rwsem to node_change, it solved
the deadlock issue which was caused by below race condition:

Thread A			Thread B
- f2fs_setattr
 - f2fs_lock_op  -- read_lock
 - dquot_transfer
  - __dquot_transfer
   - dquot_acquire
    - commit_dqblk
     - f2fs_quota_write
      - f2fs_write_begin
       - f2fs_write_failed
				- write_checkpoint
				 - block_operations
				  - f2fs_lock_all  -- write_lock
        - f2fs_truncate_blocks
         - f2fs_lock_op  -- read_lock

But it breaks the sematics of cp_rwsem, in other callers like:
- f2fs_file_write_iter -> f2fs_write_begin -> f2fs_write_failed
- f2fs_direct_IO -> f2fs_write_failed

We allow to truncate dnode w/o cp_rwsem held, result in incorrect sit
bitmap update, which can cause further data corruption.

So this patch reverts previous fix implementation, and try to fix
deadlock by skipping calling f2fs_truncate_blocks() in f2fs_write_failed()
only for quota file, and keep the preallocated data/node in the tail of
quota file, we can expecte that the preallocated space can be used to
store quota info latter soon.
