[PATCH] f2fs: avoid unneeded preflush during checkpoint()

From: Chao Yu
Date: Mon Feb 07 2022 - 06:58:56 EST


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.
