In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
f2fs: fix to trigger foreground gc during f2fs_map_blocks() in lfs mode
w/ "mode=lfs" mount option, generic/299 will cause system panic as below:

The root cause of we run out-of-space is: in f2fs_map_blocks(), f2fs may
trigger foreground gc only if it allocates any physical block, it will be
a little bit later when there is multiple threads writing data w/
aio/dio/bufio method in parallel, since we always use OPU in lfs mode, so
f2fs_map_blocks() does block allocations aggressively.
In order to fix this issue, let's give a chance to trigger foreground
gc in prior to block allocation in f2fs_map_blocks().
