Re: [f2fs-dev] [PATCH 4/5 v2] f2fs: do not stop GC when requiring a free section

[Jaegeuk Kim <jaegeuk@kernel.org>]

The f2fs_gc uses a bitmap to indicate pinned sections, but when disabling
chckpoint, we call f2fs_gc() with NULL_SEGNO which selects the same dirty
segment as a victim all the time, resulting in checkpoint=disable failure,
for example. Let's pick another one, if we fail to collect it.

 Change log from v1:
  - refactor the code path to avoid ambiguous condition like BG_GC/sec_freed
