Revert "f2fs: enhance multi-threads performance"
This reports performance regression by Yuanhan Liu. The basic idea was to reduce one-point mutex, but it turns out this causes another contention like context swithes. https://lkml.org/lkml/2015/4/21/11 Until finishing the analysis on this issue, I'd like to revert this for a while. This reverts commit 78373b7319abdf15050af5b1632c4c8b8b398f33.
