f2fs: fix tracking parent inode number
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().
