Subject: [PATCH] f2fs: disallow mmap write and data-modifying fallocate on
atomic files
Stores through a shared writable mapping and fallocate with
FALLOC_FL_PUNCH_HOLE, FALLOC_FL_ZERO_RANGE, FALLOC_FL_COLLAPSE_RANGE or
FALLOC_FL_INSERT_RANGE do not go through ->write_begin, so they bypass
the COW inode and modify the original inode directly. Reject them while
the file is in atomic write mode, as fallocate already does for pinned
and compressed files. A write fault gets SIGBUS and fallocate gets
-EOPNOTSUPP.
fallocate without these flags only preallocates blocks and stays
allowed.
f2fs_vm_page_mkwrite() cannot take inode_lock, so check the flag under
invalidate_lock, and hold invalidate_lock in
f2fs_ioc_start_atomic_write() from the flush until the flag is set.
Otherwise a fault could check the flag, then start_atomic_write could
flush and set the flag, and the fault would dirty the folio afterwards.

atomic write can only be used via buffered IO, let's fail direct IO on
atomic_file and return -EOPNOTSUPP.
