    f2fs: remove the own bi_private allocation · 187b5b8b

    Previously f2fs allocates its own bi_private data structure all the time even
    though we don't use it. But, can we remove this bi_private allocation?
    
    This patch removes such the additional bi_private allocation.
    
    1. Retrieve f2fs_sb_info from its page->mapping->host->i_sb.
     - This removes the usecases of bi_private in end_io.
    
    2. Use bi_private only when we really need it.
     - The bi_private is used only when the checkpoint procedure is conducted.
     - When conducting the checkpoint, f2fs submits a META_FLUSH bio to wait its bio
    completion.
     - Since we have no dependancies to remove bi_private now, let's just use
     bi_private pointer as the completion pointer.
