Previously, I fixed in the same way, but I got an oops when I test the
patch with xfstest suit, it shows we will meet an error in this call
path IIRC:

->f2fs_mkdir
  ->__f2fs_add_link
    ->init_inode_metadata
      ->make_empty_dir
        ->get_new_data_page
          ->f2fs_reserve_block
            ->reserve_new_block
              ->inc_valid_block_count
                return -ENOSPC;
              ->f2fs_put_dnode
                ->f2fs_put_page(ipage, 1)

      put_error:
        ->f2fs_put_page(ipage, 1);
          f2fs_bug_on(F2FS_P_SB(page), !PageLocked(page));

And I don't think we should change error handling method of f2fs_put_dnode
for just fixing this issue.

How do you think?

Thanks,
