f2fs: fix to avoid accessing uninitialized curseg

syzbot reports a f2fs bug as below:

Commit 8b10d3653735 ("f2fs: introduce FAULTNOSEGMENT") allows to trigger no free segment fault in allocator, then it will update curseg->segno to NULLSEGNO, though, CPERRORFLAG has been set, f2fswrite_inode() missed to check the flag, and access invalid curseg->segno directly in below call path, then resulting in panic:

• f2fswriteinode
  • f2fsischeckpointready
    • hasenoughfreesecs
      • hasnotenoughfreesecs
        • __getsecsrequired
          • hascursegenoughspace
            • getckptvalidblocks : access invalid curseg->segno

To avoid this issue, let's: - check CPERRORFLAG flag in prior to f2fsischeckpointready() in f2fswriteinode(). - in hascursegenoughspace(), save curseg->segno into a temp variable, and verify its validation before use.
