In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

f2fs: fix to do sanity check on total_data_blocks

As Yanming reported in bugzilla:

https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=215916

The kernel message is shown below:

The root cause is: ckpt.valid_block_count is inconsistent with SIT table,
stat info indicates filesystem has free blocks, but SIT table indicates
filesystem has no free segment.

So that during garbage colloection, it triggers panic when LFS allocator
fails to find free segment.

This patch tries to fix this issue by checking consistency in between
ckpt.valid_block_count and block accounted from SIT.
