[PATCH v2] f2fs: skip f2fs_preallocate_blocks() for overwrite case

[Chao Yu <chao@kernel.org>]

There is potential hangtask happened during swapfile's writeback:

- loop_kthread_worker_fn		- do_checkpoint
  - kthread_worker_fn
   - loop_queue_work
    - lo_rw_aio
     - f2fs_file_write_iter
      - f2fs_preallocate_blocks
       - f2fs_map_blocks
					 - down_write
        - down_read
         - rwsem_down_read_slowpath
          - schedule

One cause is f2fs_preallocate_blocks() will always be called no matter
the physical block addresses are allocated or not.

This patch tries to check whether block addresses are all allocated with
i_size and i_blocks of inode, it's rough because blocks can be allocated
beyond i_size, however, we can afford skipping block preallocation in this
condition since it's not necessary to do preallocation all the time.

v2:
- check overwrite case with i_size and i_blocks roughly.
