[PATCH] f2fs: prevent the current section from being selected as a victim during garbage collection

From: Yohan Joung
Date: Wed Mar 26 2025 - 10:14:47 EST


When selecting a victim using next_victim_seg in a large section, the
selected section might already have been cleared and designated as the
new current section, making it actively in use.
This behavior causes inconsistency between the SIT and SSA.
