Hi, Chao.

I believe the issue you pointed out goes beyond the scope of the
problem reported by syzbot, as I have seen this issue in some existing
code as well, such as in the handling of read-only file systems in
f2fs_mark_inode_dirty_sync(), f2fs_write_checkpoint(),
f2fs_do_sync_file(), etc.

If you do believe the problem needs to be fixed, we can discuss it
further, but it should be addressed in a separate patch.

If there is anything important I'm missing, please let me know, thanks.
