Jaegeuk Kim 47501f87c6 f2fs: preallocate DIO blocks when forcing buffered_io
The previous preallocation and DIO decision like below.

                         allow_outplace_dio              !allow_outplace_dio
f2fs_force_buffered_io   (*) No_Prealloc / Buffered_IO   Prealloc / Buffered_IO
!f2fs_force_buffered_io  No_Prealloc / DIO               Prealloc / DIO

But, Javier reported Case (*) where zoned device bypassed preallocation but
fell back to buffered writes in f2fs_direct_IO(), resulting in stale data
being read.

In order to fix the issue, actually we need to preallocate blocks whenever
we fall back to buffered IO like this. No change is made in the other cases.

                         allow_outplace_dio              !allow_outplace_dio
f2fs_force_buffered_io   (*) Prealloc / Buffered_IO      Prealloc / Buffered_IO
!f2fs_force_buffered_io  No_Prealloc / DIO               Prealloc / DIO

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.
