Direct IO can be used in case of hardware encryption. The following
scenario results into data corruption issue in this path -
Thread A - Thread B-
-> write file#1 in direct IO
-> GC gets kicked in
-> GC submitted bio on meta mapping
for file#1, but pending completion
-> write file#1 again with new data
in direct IO
-> GC bio gets completed now
-> GC writes old data to the new
location and thus file#1 is
corrupted.
Fix this by submitting and waiting for pending io on meta mapping
for direct IO case in f2fs_map_blocks().

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
