Subject: [PATCH] f2fs: avoid unneeded preflush during checkpoint()
Date:   Mon,  7 Feb 2022 19:35:16 +0800
Message-Id: <20220207113516.9489-1-chao@kernel.org>

Precedence: bulk

During checkpoint, we have committed preflush command via f2fs_flush_device_cache()
to persist all metadata pages except last #2 CP pack page, so we don't need to
commit another preflush command in commit_checkpoint(), remove it to avoid unneeded
write cache overhead.
