One missing case is get_data_block_dio, how about also covering it based on
following patch?

Subject: [PATCH] f2fs: reduce covered region of sbi->cp_rwsem in
 f2fs_map_blocks

Only cover sbi->cp_rwsem on one dnode page's allocation and modification
instead of multiple's in f2fs_map_blocks, it can reduce the covered region
of cp_rwsem, then we can avoid potential long time delay for concurrent
checkpointer.
