Subject: [PATCH 4.14 057/246] f2fs: fix to dont trigger writeback during recovery

4.14-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

[ Upstream commit 64c74a7ab505ea40d1b3e5d02735ecab08ae1b14 ]

        - f2fs_balance_fs
         - f2fs_balance_fs_bg
          - sync_dirty_inodes

With data_flush mount option, during recovery, in order to avoid entering
above writeback flow, let's detect recovery status and do skip in
f2fs_balance_fs_bg.
