The root cause is if checkpoint_disabling and lfs_mode are both on,
it will trigger OPU for all overwritten data, it may cost more free
segment than expected, so f2fs must account those data correctly to
calculate cosumed free segments later, and return ENOSPC earlier to
avoid run out of free segment during block allocation.
