Okay, I see. Let me try to understand in more details.
Basically, there'd be no problem if there is no f2fs_stop_checkpoint(), since
every {set|clear}_ckpt_flags() are called under f2fs_lock_op() or in
fill_super(). And, you're probably concerned about any breakage of ckpt->flags
due to accidental f2fs_stop_checkpoint() trigger. So, we're able to lose
ERROR_FLAG because of data race.

Oh, I found one potential corruption case in f2fs_write_checkpoint().
Before writing the last checkpoint block, we used to check its IO error.
But, if set_ckpt_flags() and f2fs_stop_checkpoint() were called concurrently,
ckpt_flags was able to lose ERROR_FLAG, resulting in finalizing its checkpoint
pack. So, we can get valid checkpoint pack with EIO'ed metadata block.

BTW, we can do multiple set/clear flags in do_checkpoint() with single spin_lock
call, tho.

Thanks,
