It's still not clear that why __sb_start_write(sb, SB_FREEZE_FS) will be blocked,
as SB_FREEZE_FS and SB_FREEZE_WRITE points to different locks.

Thread A				Thread B				Thread C
- rename
  - sb_start_write
   - __sb_start_write(SB_FREEZE_WRITE)
...
      - f2fs_lookup
...
        - __wait_on_freeing_inode
					- drop_slab
					 - prune_icache_sb
					  - inode_lru_isolate
					   :inode->i_state |= I_FREEING
										- Is there any flow that it has already held
										 SB_FREEZE_FS and try to lock SB_FREEZE_WRITE?
					   - f2fs_evict_inode
					    - __sb_start_write(SB_FREEZE_FS)

Thanks,
