Subject: [PATCH] f2fs: relocate chksum_offset for large_nat_bitmap feature

For large_nat_bitmap feature, there is a design flaw:

Previous:

struct f2fs_checkpoint layout:
+--------------------------+  0x0000
| checkpoint_ver           |
| ......                   |
| checksum_offset          |------+
| ......                   |      |
| sit_nat_version_bitmap[] |<-----|-------+
| ......                   |      |       |
| checksum_value           |<-----+       |
+--------------------------+  0x1000      |
|                          |      nat_bitmap + sit_bitmap
| payload blocks           |              |
|                          |              |
+--------------------------|<-------------+

Obviously, if nat_bitmap size + sit_bitmap size is larger than
MAX_BITMAP_SIZE_IN_CKPT, nat_bitmap or sit_bitmap may overlap
checkpoint checksum's position, once checkpoint() is triggered
from kernel, nat or sit bitmap will be damaged by checksum field.

In order to fix this, let's relocate checksum_value's position
to the head of sit_nat_version_bitmap as below, then nat/sit
bitmap and chksum value update will become safe.

After:

struct f2fs_checkpoint layout:
+--------------------------+  0x0000
| checkpoint_ver           |
| ......                   |
| checksum_offset          |------+
| ......                   |      |
| sit_nat_version_bitmap[] |<-----+
| ......                   |<-------------+
|                          |              |
+--------------------------+  0x1000      |
|                          |      nat_bitmap + sit_bitmap
| payload blocks           |              |
|                          |              |
+--------------------------|<-------------+
