[f2fs-dev] [PATCH 2/3] f2fs: avoid unneeded page release for correct_count of page

[Chao Yu]

In find_fsync_dnodes() and recover_data(), our flow is like this:

->f2fs_submit_page_bio()
	-> f2fs_put_page()
		-> page_cache_release()	---- page->_count declined to zero.
->__free_pages()
	-> put_page_testzero() ---- page->_count will be declined again.

We will get a segment fault in put_page_testzero when CONFIG_DEBUG_VM
is on, or return MM with a bad page with wrong _count num.

So let's just release this page.
