Nice proposal, we have the same idea for foreground GC, I guess we
can upstream this later as well:

We can encounter below race case?
flusher remounter
- issue_checkpoint_thread
- __checkpoint_and_complete_reqs
- remount
- f2fs_destroy_ckpt_req_control
- cprc->f2fs_issue_ckpt = NULL;
- kthread_stop(ckpt_task);
- access NULL sbi->cprc_info

Before this function, we have checked lockless list by llist_empty(&cprc->issue_list),
so, if we can not grab any entries from list, is that caused by race between
issue_checkpoint_thread() and f2fs_destroy_ckpt_req_control()?

If we will allocate ckpt_req_control structure anyway, how about inlining
this structure into f2fs_sb_info structure?

Is DEFAULT_CHECKPOINT_IOPRIO not same to default priority of kernel thread?
If it is the same, above line is unneeded for this patch, otherwise, do we
need to set default ioprio for discard/gc/flush thread as well?

Why we need owner, queue_time and complete_time field? did you plan
