I didn't get it, why f2fs_get_victim() will return section which is used
by curseg? It should be avoided by checking w/ sec_usage_check().
Or we missed to check gcing section which next_victim_seg points to
during get_new_segment()?
Can this happen?
e.g.
- bggc selects sec #0
- next_victim_seg: seg #0
- migrate seg #0 and stop
- next_victim_seg: seg #1
- checkpoint, set sec #0 free if sec #0 has no valid blocks
- allocate seg #0 in sec #0 for curseg
- curseg moves to seg #1 after allocation
- bggc tries to migrate seg #1
