In case of the COW file, new updates and GC writes are already
separated to page caches of the atomic file and COW file. As some cases
that use the meta inode for GC, there are some race issues between a
foreground thread and GC thread.

To handle them, we need to take care when to invalidate and wait
writeback of GC pages in COW files as the case of using the meta inode.
Also, a pointer from the COW inode to the original inode is required to
check the state of original pages.

For the former, we can solve the problem by using the meta inode for GC
of COW files. Then let's get a page from the original inode in
move_data_block when GCing the COW file to avoid race condition.

How about adding a union fields as below for readability?

struct f2fs_inode_info {
...
	union {
		struct inode *cow_inode;	/* copy-on-write inode for atomic write */
		struct inode *atomic_inode;	/* point to atomic_inode, available only for cow_inode */
	};
...
};

Thanks,
