When f2fs_get_valid_checkpoint() fails during mount (e.g. due to an invalid checkpoint CRC on a malformed image), f2fs_fill_super() takes an error path that eventually calls iput() on the root inode. This invokes f2fs_drop_inode() -> f2fs_exist_written_data(), which acquires sbi->im[]->ino_lock. However, f2fs_init_ino_entry_info() has not run yet at this point, so the spinlock is uninitialized and lockdep complains:F2FS-fs (loop0): invalid crc value F2FS-fs (loop0): Failed to get valid F2FS checkpoint INFO: trying to register non-static key. The code is fine but needs lockdep annotation, or maybe you didn't initialize this object before use? ... f2fs_exist_written_data+0x53/0x90 fs/f2fs/checkpoint.c:787 f2fs_drop_inode+0xda/0xbf0 fs/f2fs/super.c:1852 iput+0x651/0xe80 fs/inode.c:2009 f2fs_fill_super+0x6047/0x7850 fs/f2fs/super.c:5461 Move f2fs_init_ino_entry_info() to before f2fs_get_valid_checkpoint() so that sbi->im[] is always fully initialized before any error path can trigger iput() -> f2fs_drop_inode(). The init function only depends on raw superblock fields (BLKS_PER_SEG, F2FS_CP_PACKS, NR_CURSEG_PERSIST_TYPE, __cp_payload), which are populated well before checkpoint load, so the move is safe.
