f2fs: fix handling errors got by f2fs_write_inode
Ruslan reported that f2fs hangs with an infinite loop in f2fs_sync_file():
while (sync_node_pages(sbi, inode->i_ino, &wbc) == 0)
f2fs_write_inode(inode, NULL);
The reason was revealed that the cold flag is not set even thought this inode is
a normal file. Therefore, sync_node_pages() skips to write node blocks since it
only writes cold node blocks.
The cold flag is stored to the node_footer in node block, and whenever a new
node page is allocated, it is set according to its file type, file or directory.
But, after sudden-power-off, when recovering the inode page, f2fs doesn't recover
its cold flag.
So, let's assign the cold flag in more right places.
One more thing:
If f2fs_write_inode() returns an error due to whatever situations, there would
be no dirty node pages so that sync_node_pages() returns zero.
(i.e., zero means nothing was written.)
