    f2fs: use sbi->write_mutex for write bios · 971767ca
    Jaegeuk Kim authored
    This patch removes an unnecessary semaphore (i.e., sbi->bio_sem).
    There is no reason to use the semaphore when f2fs submits read and write IOs.
    Instead, let's use a write mutex and cover the sbi->bio[] by the lock.
    
    Change log from v1:
     o split write_mutex suggested by Chao Yu
    
    Chao described,
    "All DATA/NODE/META bio buffers in superblock is protected by
    'sbi->write_mutex', but each bio buffer area is independent, So we
    should split write_mutex to three for DATA/NODE/META."
