Yunlei He 2a63531a61 f2fs: fix a hungtask problem caused by congestion_wait
This patch fix hungtask problem which can be reproduced as follow:

Thread 0~3:
while true
do
        touch /xxx/test/file_xxx
done

Thread 4 write a new checkpoint every three seconds.

In the meantime, fio start 16 threads for randwrite.

With my debug info, cycles num will exceed 1000 in function
f2fs_sync_dirty_inodes, and most of cycle will be dropped
into congestion_wait() and sleep more than 20ms. Cycles num
reduced to 3 with this patch.

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
