Hi Chao,

The patch is about as follows, because dic->sbi is used directly in
f2fs_free_dic: page_array_free(dic->sbi, dic->tpages, dic->cluster_size);
so there are two points I want to confirm:
1. As a corresponding, the first parameter (inode) of page_array_alloc
is need to modify to sbi or not ?
2. As a corresponding, do we need to add the sbi field in compress_ctx
so that page_array_alloc/free called
in compress flow can use sbi directly?
Thanks!
