In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: f2fs: fix to avoid panic once fallocation fails for pinfile syzbot reports a f2fs bug as below: ------------[ cut here ]------------ kernel BUG at fs/f2fs/segment.c:2746!

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()
