Let's consider a race condition between f2fs_add_regular_entry and find_target_dentry.
1. - f2fs_add_regular_entry updated len: 24 first. | Bits: 0 0 0 1 Lens: 24 0 0 3 (name: foo) |-> - find_target_dentry checks the first bit to find "foo", then ++pointer. 2. - f2fs_add_regular_entry updates bits. |>|>| Bits: 1 1 1 1 Lens: 24 0 0 3 (name: foo) | - find_target_dentry is checking second bit, but it's len is zero, which makes the process being terminated. In this case, user can add additional dentry named "foo" accordingly. This patch enables to check the remaining bits.
