[PATCH] f2fs: fix to drop all inmem pages correctly

From: Chao Yu
Date: Mon Jan 15 2018 - 04:17:16 EST


In commit 57864ae5ce3a ("f2fs: limit # of inmemory pages"), we have
limited memory footprint of all inmem pages with 20% of total memory,
otherwise, if we exceed the threshold, we will try to drop all inmem
pages to avoid excessive memory pressure resulting in performance
regression.

But in some unrelated error paths, we will also drop all inmem pages,
which should be wrong, fix it in this patch.
