In above cases racing in between atomic_write and GC, previous
data in atomic_file may be overwrited to cow_file, result in
data corruption.
This patch introduces PAGE_PRIVATE_ATOMIC_WRITE bit flag in page.private,
and use it to indicate that there is last dirty data in atomic file,
and the data should be writebacked into cow_file, if the flag is not
tagged in page, we should never write data across files.
