[PATCH] f2fs: fix to don't set SB_RDONLY in f2fs_handle_critical_error()

[Chao Yu <chao@kernel.org>]

syzbot reports a f2fs bug as below:

As Christian Brauner pointed out [1]: the root cause is f2fs sets
SB_RDONLY flag in internal function, rather than setting the flag
covered w/ sb->s_umount semaphore via remount procedure, then below
race condition causes this bug:

- freeze_super()
 - sb_wait_write(sb, SB_FREEZE_WRITE)
 - sb_wait_write(sb, SB_FREEZE_PAGEFAULT)
 - sb_wait_write(sb, SB_FREEZE_FS)
					- f2fs_handle_critical_error
					 - sb->s_flags |= SB_RDONLY
- thaw_super
 - thaw_super_locked
  - sb_rdonly() is true, so it skips
    sb_freeze_unlock(sb, SB_FREEZE_FS)
  - deactivate_locked_super

Since f2fs has almost the same logic as ext4 [2] when handling critical
error in filesystem if it mounts w/ errors=remount-ro option:
- set CP_ERROR_FLAG flag which indicates filesystem is stopped
- record errors to superblock
- set SB_RDONLY falg
Once we set CP_ERROR_FLAG flag, all writable interfaces can detect the
flag and stop any further updates on filesystem. So, it is safe to not
set SB_RDONLY flag, let's remove the logic and keep in line w/ ext4 [3].
