f2fs: Fix indefinite loop in f2fs_gc() Policy - foreground GC, LFS mode and greedy GC mode. Under this policy, f2fs_gc() loops forever to GC as it doesn't have enough free segements to proceed and thus it keeps calling gc_more for the same victim segment. This can happen if the selected victim segment could not be GC'd due to failed blkaddr validity check i.e. is_alive() returns false for the blocks set in current validity map. Fix this by not resetting the sbi->cur_victim_sec to NULL_SEGNO, when the segment selected could not be GC'd. This helps to select another segment for GC and thus helps to proceed forward with GC. [Note] This can happen due to is_alive as well as atomic_file which skipps GC. Signed-off-by: Sahitya Tummala <stummala@codeaurora.org> Signed-off-by: Jaegeuk Kim <jaegeuk@kernel.org>
