f2fs_flush_device_cache is designed as only flushing devices except the first
one when f2fs enables multiple device. Calling it directly will be OK. :)

I think we should consider the case Xiang mentioned:

1. write async checkpoint #1 from gc;
2. write sync checkpoint #2 from sync_fs, end_io finished w/ error; -> cp #2 becomes corrupted
3. checkpoint #1's end_io finished w/ error; -> cp #1 becomes corrupted

Then, entire filesystem becomes corrupted now.
