This is an issue that arises when dividing 
a large section into segments for garbage collection.
caused by the background GC (garbage collection) thread in large section
f2fs_gc(victim_section) -> f2fs_clear_prefree_segments(victim_section)-> 
cursec(victim_section) -> f2fs_gc(victim_section by next_victim_seg)

Because the call stack is different, 
I think that in order to handle everything at once, 
we need to address it within do_garbage_collect, 
or otherwise include it on both sides. What do you think?
