[PATCH v1] f2fs: Fix over-estimating free section during FG GC

From: Yonggil Song
Date: Fri May 12 2023 - 00:16:21 EST


There was a bug that finishing FG GC unconditionally because free sections
are over-estimated after checkpoint in FG GC.
This patch initializes sec_freed by every checkpoint in FG GC.
