I do not understand why this transaction is inconsistent, is it a
problem that page #2 is not committed into nand flash? Since normal
gc also has this problem:

Suppose that there is db file A, f2fs_gc moves data page #1 of db file
A. But if write checkpoint only commit node page #1 and then a sudden
power-cut happens. Data page #1 is not committed to nand flash, but
node page #1 is committed. Is the db transaction broken and
inconsistent?

Come back to your example, I think data page 2 of atomic file does not
belong to this transaction, so even node page 2 is committed, it is just
the same problem as what I have listed above(db file A), and it does not
break this transaction.
