Subject: [PATCH V2] f2fs: fix to avoid use GC_AT when setting gc_mode as GC_URGENT_LOW or GC_URGENT_MID

If gc_mode is set to GC_URGENT_LOW or GC_URGENT_MID, cost benefit GC
approach should be used, but if ATGC is enabled at the same time,
Age-threshold approach will be selected, which can only do amount of
GC and it is much less than the numbers of CB approach.
