Chao Yu 0b20fcec86 f2fs: cache global IPU bio 
In commit 8648de2c58 ("f2fs: add bio cache for IPU"), we added
f2fs_submit_ipu_bio() in __write_data_page() as below:

__write_data_page()

	if (!S_ISDIR(inode->i_mode) && !IS_NOQUOTA(inode)) {
		f2fs_submit_ipu_bio(sbi, bio, page);
		....
	}

in order to avoid below deadlock:

Thread A				Thread B
- __write_data_page (inode x, page y)
 - f2fs_do_write_data_page
  - set_page_writeback        ---- set writeback flag in page y
  - f2fs_inplace_write_data
 - f2fs_balance_fs
					 - lock gc_mutex
 - lock gc_mutex
					  - f2fs_gc
					   - do_garbage_collect
					    - gc_data_segment
					     - move_data_page
					      - f2fs_wait_on_page_writeback
					       - wait_on_page_writeback  --- wait writeback of page y

However, the bio submission breaks the merge of IPU IOs.

So in this patch let's add a global bio cache for merged IPU pages,
then f2fs_wait_on_page_writeback() is able to submit bio if a
writebacked page is cached in global bio cache.

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 Restructured Text 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.
