f2fs: compress: fix race condition of overwrite vs truncate
pos_fsstress testcase complains a panic as belew:

The root cause is truncate() may race with overwrite as below,
so that one reference count left in page can not guarantee the
page attaching in mapping tree all the time, after truncation,
later find_lock_page() may return NULL pointer.
- prepare_compress_overwrite
- f2fs_pagecache_get_page
- unlock_page
- f2fs_setattr
- truncate_setsize
- truncate_inode_page
- delete_from_page_cache
- find_lock_page
Fix this by avoiding referencing updated page.
