Ruslan reported that f2fs hangs with an infinite loop in f2fs_sync_file():
while (sync_node_pages(sbi, inode->i_ino, &wbc) == 0)
f2fs_write_inode(inode, NULL);
The reason was revealed that the cold flag is not set even thought this inode is
a normal file. Therefore, sync_node_pages() skips to write node blocks since it
only writes cold node blocks.
The cold flag is stored to the node_footer in node block, and whenever a new
node page is allocated, it is set according to its file type, file or directory.
But, after sudden-power-off, when recovering the inode page, f2fs doesn't recover
its cold flag.
So, let's assign the cold flag in more right places.
One more thing:
If f2fs_write_inode() returns an error due to whatever situations, there would
be no dirty node pages so that sync_node_pages() returns zero.
(i.e., zero means nothing was written.)

Test Case:
[NFS Client]
ls -lR .
[NFS Server]
while [ 1 ]
do
echo 3 > /proc/sys/vm/drop_caches
done
Error on NFS Client: "No such file or directory"
When cache is dropped at the server, it results in lookup failure at the
NFS client due to non-connection with the parent. The default path is it
initiates a lookup by calculating the hash value for the name, even though
the hash values stored on the disk for "." and ".." is maintained as zero,
which results in failure from find_in_block due to not matching HASH values.
Fix up, by using the correct hashing values for these entries.

Previously, f2fs didn't track the parent inode number correctly which is stored
in each f2fs_inode. In the case of the following scenario, a bug can be occured.
Let's suppose there are one directory, "/b", and two files, "/a" and "/b/a".
- pino of "/a" is ROOT_INO.
- pino of "/b/a" is DIR_B_INO.
Then,
# sync
: The inode pages of "/a" and "/b/a" contain the parent inode numbers as
ROOT_INO and DIR_B_INO respectively.
# mv /a /b/a
: The parent inode number of "/a" should be changed to DIR_B_INO, but f2fs
didn't do that. Ref. f2fs_set_link().
In order to fix this clearly, I added i_pino in f2fs_inode_info, and whenever
it needs to be changed like in f2fs_add_link() and f2fs_set_link(), it is
updated temporarily in f2fs_inode_info.
And later, f2fs_write_inode() stores the latest information to the inode pages.
For power-off-recovery, f2fs_sync_file() triggers simply f2fs_write_inode().

Since, we anyway need to put the page after deleting entry. So, there is no
need to make same call under different conditions.
Move out the f2fs_put_page from the two conditions and call at once.

The variables node_page and page_offset are initialized but never used
otherwise, so remove those unused variables.

This patch should resolve the bugs reported by the sparse tool.
Initial reports were written by "kbuild test robot" managed by fengguang.wu.
In my local machines, I've tested also by running:
> make C=2 CF="-D__CHECK_ENDIAN__"
Accordingly, I've found lots of warnings and bugs related to the endian
conversion. And I've fixed all at this moment.
