We can add one more parameter in get_new_data_page to indicate whether > callee needs to lock cp_rwsem. Currently, there would be some places to keep cp_rwsem -> page.lock, which seems not simple to change the lock order with page.lock -> cp_rwsem. IMO, we can retry flushing data in f2fs_sync_file, once it gets -EAGAIN.
