Subject: [PATCH] f2fs: add READ_ONCE() for i_blocks in f2fs_update_inode()

f2fs_update_inode() reads inode->i_blocks without holding i_lock to
serialize it to the on-disk inode, while concurrent truncate or
allocation paths may modify i_blocks under i_lock.  Since blkcnt_t is
u64, this risks torn reads on 32-bit architectures.

Following the approach in ext4_inode_blocks_set(), add READ_ONCE() to prevent
potential compiler-induced tearing.
