Previously, there was a erroneous scenario like below. thread 1: thread 2: f2fs_unlink - acquire_orphan_inode : sbi->n_orphans++ write_checkpoint - block_operations : f2fs_lock_all - do_checkpoint : write orphan blocks with sbi->n_orphans - unblock_operations - f2fs_lock_op - release_orphan_inode - f2fs_unlock_op During the checkpoint by thread 2, f2fs stores a wrong orphan block according to the wrong sbi->n_orphans. To avoid this, simply we should make cover acquire_orphan_inode too with f2fs_lock_op.
