It's very very subtle bug. I got one panic after 2-days fsstress execution with
flushing caches very frequently.
The possible scenario was to mix a lot of directory operations, f2fs's shrinking
path, and fsyncing files.

And, the suspicious functions are
 - try_to_free_nats,
 - f2fs_find_entry->get_node_page->get_node_info->cache_nat_entry
 - fsync->checkpoint->flush_nat_entries
 - build_free_nids

I guess there is somewhat data race to grab and release nat cache entries when
flush_nat_entries is doing, since f2fs_find_entry is not covered by
f2fs_lock_op.

A good thing is that, with this patch, I couldn't get any bug again for 4 days;
still running tho.

Nevertheless, I couldn't describe this precisely, since I couldn't specify the
real root-cause.

Thanks,
