Subject: f2fs: fix to freeze GC and discard threads quickly
X-Git-Url: http://git.ipfire.org/gitweb.cgi?a=commitdiff_plain;h=02d91398a602c394d72cd61a67c84e2730c5f79b;p=thirdparty%2Flinux.git

f2fs: fix to freeze GC and discard threads quickly

Suspend can fail if kernel threads do not freeze for a while.
f2fs_gc and f2fs_discard threads can perform long-running operations
that prevent them from reaching a freeze point in a timely manner.

This patch adds explicit freezing checks in the following locations:
1. f2fs_gc: Added a check at the 'retry' label to exit the loop quickly
   if freezing is requested, especially during heavy GC rounds.
2. __issue_discard_cmd: Added a 'suspended' flag to break both inner and
   outer loops during discard command issuance if freezing is detected
   after at least one command has been issued.
3. __issue_discard_cmd_orderly: Added a similar check for orderly discard
   to ensure responsiveness.

These checks ensure that the threads release locks safely and enter the
frozen state.
