It's still too late if there is no free sections, as even we trigger
f2fs_balance_fs
to run foreground GC, we may need a dirty segment to write data w/ SSR mode,
however
all dirty segment could be node type...and prefree segment couldn't be reused
as we
didn't finish calling last checkpoint during FGGC.
And with this way, we may cover the root cause of this issue, I guess we'd
better
check why we have no free sections here first.
Thanks,
