From: Daeho Jeong <daehojeong@google.com>

When free_segment_range() fails in f2fs_resize_fs(), no on-disk
superblock or filesystem metadata has been modified yet, and
free_segment_range() safely restores all in-memory counters before
returning.

However, the current error recovery path unconditionally sets the
SBI_NEED_FSCK flag and prints a scary error message on any error,
forcing an unnecessary and time-consuming fsck.f2fs repair on the
subsequent mount/reboot.

Fix this by separating the error recovery path with a dedicated
recover_user_blocks label to bypass setting SBI_NEED_FSCK on
free_segment_range() failures.

v2: separate error recovery path to bypass SBI_NEED_FSCK on
    free_segment_range() failure and add f2fs_bug_on() in recover_out.
