 out of free section, result in panic in get_new_segment(), let's expand pin_sem lock coverage to include
 f2fs_gc(), so that we can make sure to reclaim enough free space for following allocation. In addition, do
 below changes to enhance error path handling: - call f2fs_bug_on() only in non-pinfile allocation path in
 get_new_segment(). - call reset_curseg_fields() to reset all fields of curseg in new_curseg()
 (CVE-2025-23130)

Solution

Update the linux library and its related packages to version 6.12.57-1 or later.
